2. Insert a large straightened paper clip (or similar object) into the Emergency Eject Hole (see "Front panel with LEDs" on page 28). Do not insert the object in the hole at an angle. Keep the object straight and apply some force to eject the cartridge. 3. When the cartridge has been ejected by the unit, grasp the exposed sides of the cartridge and pull the cartridge straight out. 4. Restart your server to reset the RDX Removable Disk Backup System. If using the external device, remember to reconnect the power cable before restarting your server. The RDX Removable Disk Backup System does not appear in the Device Manager If the unit does not appear in the Windows Device Manager and the power LED is green, follow these steps to rescan the hardware: 1. Bring up the Device Manager: • Right-click on My Computer. • Select Manage . • Select Device Manager. 2. Right-click on the top folder (this should be your server's name). Select Scan for Hardware Changes. 3. You should see your RDX Removable Disk Backup System listed under Disk drives. If the device does not appear, restart the server. Unit performance seems slow Make sure your unit is connected to a USB 2.0 port instead of a USB 1.1 port. For best performance connect directly to a USB 2.0 root hub on the PC and not an external hub. If using an external hub, make sure it is USB 2.0 compliant. Be aware that the USB bus shares bandwidth between all USB devices connected to the systems, including the RDX Removable Disk Backup System. The use of cameras, flash memory devices, and so on, on the USB bus will decrease performance of the device. Remove extra devices if they are not necessary. See also "USB Configuration Guide" on page 35. Write Error If the backup application reports a write error, follow these steps: 1. Verify that the write protect switch on the cartridge is set to the padlock open position. 2. Check the cartridge LED on the front of the cartridge. If this LED is amber, the cartridge is not working properly. This may be due to severe damage to the cartridge. Run the RDX utility to obtain more information about the failure. 3. Replace the cartridge if the error persists. Firmware download fails with Windows Server 2003 If the firmware download fails with error invalid parameter and you are using Windows Server 2003, check to ensure you have at least Service Pack 1 installed.
