Using RAID Modes
G SPEED Q
The Congurator Utility
To change the RAID level for your G-SPEED Q, you will
need a software utility from G-Technology called Con-
gurator. NOTE: YOU MUST CONNECT THE DRIVE VIA
THE USB PORT TO USE CONFIGURATOR.
The utility is available on the enclosed CD or you can
download it from the G-Technology website at www.g-
technology/support
If you downloaded Congurator, you should launch it directly from the mounted Disk
Image. If you copied Congurator from our CD, it is important that you copy it (by
Option+dragging) to your Applications folder prior to running. Congurator will not
work if you drag it to the Applications Folder and then launch.
Congure the RAID Mode
It is easy to congure the RAID mode with the following steps. NOTE: Changing the
RAID level will erase all data on the drive. Be sure all the material you want to save is
backed up to a separate disk.
1. Connect G-SPEED Q via its USB port and launch the Congurator utility. A window
will appear asking you to disconnect all other external hard disks from your com-
puter. This is important to ensure that Congurator does not aect other FireWire or
USB devices on your system.
