iR2024 Question & Answer

Q1Upgrading Your System: Integrating iR2024 with Legacy RAID 1 Hard Drives.

1. Ensure the legacy device is functioning properly before powering down the system.

2. With the system off, replace the legacy device with the iR2024.

3. Remove a hard drive from the legacy device and install it into the iR2024.

4. Turn on the system, ensuring only one hard drive is installed in the iR2024 initially.

5. Upon booting, verify that all information is accurate and correct.

6. Once you've verified the accuracy of the data, proceed to insert another hard drive (either from the previous model or a new one) into the iR2024 while the computer remains powered on. The iR2024 will detect the newly added hard drive and automatically initiate data rebuilding.

7. Completion of the data rebuild signifies the successful update of the system.

* NOTE 1: If the legacy device is currently rebuilding data, please wait for this process to finish before undertaking the steps mentioned above.

* NOTE 2: In cases where the legacy device has only one functioning hard drive, ensure you back up its data prior to starting these operations to prevent potential data loss from hard drive failure during the process.

* NOTE 3: If the old model contains two hard drives, it's advisable to retain one of them as a precautionary measure to prevent damage during the process, which could lead to irreversible data loss.

Q2Upgrading from a Legacy RAID Device to iR2024 with New Hard Drives.

1. Begin by backing up the data from the functioning legacy device using a third-party application (e.g., Ghost).

2. Turn off the system, then replace the legacy device with the iR2024.

3. Install the two new hard drives into the iR2024 and power on the system.

4. Once the system has booted, proceed to restore the backed-up data onto the iR2024.

*NOTE: If the legacy device is undergoing a data rebuild, wait for this process to complete before starting these procedures.

Q3What causes RAIDbox to be unable to recognize my non-brand-new hard drive?

The issue may arise from existing records or data on the hard drive, preventing RAIDbox from recognizing it. To address this, connect the hard drive to your computer individually, clear its sectors using the operating system, and proceed to reformat it. For step-by-step instructions, please consult the operating system's guidelines. Once completed, you can then reintegrate the formatted hard drive into the RAIDbox for utilization.
