ReadyNAS OS 6 Desktop Storage Systems WARNING: To prevent damage to your system, make sure that the disk tray is correctly oriented before inserting it into the drive bay. 8. Insert the disk tray back into the drive bay of the storage system. • For 2-bay and 4-bay systems, insert the disk tray so that the disk tray release latch is near the bottom of the system. • For 6-bay systems, insert the disk tray so that the disk tray release latch is on the left side of the system. 9. Press down on the disk tray handle until it latches closed. The disk tray is secured in the drive bay. 10. If necessary, turn on your system by pressing the Power button. If the disk that you added was not previously formatted, the system uses the disk in one of the following ways: • If you are adding the disk to a system that uses X-RAID, the system automatically determines whether the disk is used for protection or storage. The new disk is incorporated in the background while you continue to use your system. • If you are adding the disk to a system that uses Flex-RAID, the disk becomes available for use. You use the local admin page to manually configure the new disk. For more information about X-RAID, Flex-RAID, and using the local admin page, see the ReadyNAS OS 6 Software Manual, which is available at support.netgear.com/product/ReadyNAS-OS6.  To add a 2.5-inch hard disk drive (HDD) or 2.5-inch solid state drive (SSD): 1. Determine whether you must shut down your system: • If you are adding disks to a diskless system, gracefully shut down the system. For information about how to gracefully shut down your system, see the Preferred Shutdown section of the chapter that describes your system. • If your system is operating with one or more disks, you can add disks while the system is running. You do not need to shut down the system. 2. If necessary, slide the recessed handle lock to the unlocked position. Disks 117
