Installing a Disk Drive If you purchased a Stora with only one installed drive, and you want to add a second drive, carefully follow these instructions. Important: The second drive must be the same size as the first drive. You can insert a second disk drive into the Stora without turning the unit off. The Stora automatically detects the second drive and builds it as a "mirror drive." The following instructions explain how to replace or install a new drive. To add or remove a disk drive: 1. Remove the front cover of your Stora unit. 2. If you are replacing a drive, unlock it by pulling down the latch on the back of the unit. This will release the hard drive from the locked position. 3. Insert the new hard drive. a. The label on the drive needs to face the outside of the unit. b. Slide the disk into place in either slot until it locks. c. Replace the front cover. 4. The green LED on the front of the Stora will blink continuously until the installed drive build process is complete. Warning: The Stora formats hard drives differently than a computer. Do not swap hard drives between a Stora and a computer or your data will be lost. Troubleshooting • Check the status lights to verify correct operation. When powered on, the Stora blue power button light will be on. Green status lights labeled 1 and 2 indicate which hard drive is installed and detected. If the drive light is amber, turn off the Stora unti, and then turn it on again. • Turning off Your Stora correctly. To turn off your Stora, press the power button until the blue light blinks (about 5 seconds). • Verify Ethernet connection. Make sure that your Ethernet cable is securely connected to your router and to the Stora, and the LEDs on the back of the Stora are lit. • Turn off your Firewall. Make sure that the computer accessing the Stora does not have its firewall turned on. Please see the User Manual on the Resource CD for information on turning off the firewall.
