Caring for your CDs
■ Keep your CDs in a CD case when not in use to avoid scratches or other
damage. Any kind of dirt or damage can affect the data on the disc or stop
the drive from successfully reading the disc.
■ When handling discs, always hold them by the edges to avoid smudges
or fingerprints.
■ When cleaning discs, use a clean, dust-free cloth and wipe in a straight
line from the center to the edge. Do not wipe in a circular motion.
■ Clean your CD drive periodically.
Hard drive
Your NAS came installed with four hot-swap hard drives. By default, the NAS
is configured with the RAID (redundant array of independent disks)
configurations, either RAID 0 (striped), RAID 1 (mirrored), or RAID 5 (striped
with parity).
The NAS uses a Promise PDC20275 IDE controller to support the ATA/133
channel and a high-performance ARC600-66 IDE RAID controller with four
Marvell 8818030 bridges to support the four hot-swap SATA hard drives.
When correctly configured, the NAS can provide non-stop service with a high
degree of fault tolerance through the use of RAID technology and advanced
array management features. The hard drive can be configured to RAID levels
0, 1 (0+1), 5, and 10.
