Two Options for Setting RAID on the Compact RAID Box

(only select one option)

I. Using the JMicron HW RAID Manager utility program

For Windows users, install the JMicron HW RAID Manager located on the

SATA Controller CD. In the CD, go to RAID utilities > JMB393. This manager can be used to create and monitor the status of the RAID volume.

Use the RESERVE DIP switch setting when using the JMicron HW

RAID Manager.

Select the setting desired using the DIP switch table.

Using the provided eSATA to eSATA cable, connect one end to the eSATA port on the RAID box and the other end to the eSATA

controller c. d. e. card.

Press the power switch button for more than 2 seconds. Wait for power LED status to change from starting to ready.

Press the “Change mode” button for more than 2 seconds. This will configure the raid volume.

Navigate to the Disk Management utility to configure the drives.

Note: for the system to detect multiple individual drives, the RAID box must be connected to a port multiplier compatible eSATA host controller. If the RAID box is

NOT connected to a port multiplier compatible eSATA host controller, the system will only detect one drive and that is the hard drive in slot HD0.
