Please ensure that the hard drives are free of bad tracks before using, otherwise, it
may cause system crash in turn resulting in data loss.
Although iT4300 Series allows you to install either SAS or SATA drives, it is recommended to
check the whether mini-SAS host adapter you´re using is downward compatible with SATA
drives. Also note that the throughput performance may vary if SAS and SATA drive are installed.
Whenever turning off or unplugging the iT4300 Series from your computer system
becomes necessary, always remember to safely remove it from your operating
system first.
When the iT4300 Series is connected to the computer system, it´s prohibited to
remove, insert or swap the harddrive while data transfer is being performed.
It is highly recommended for users to back up important data contained within the
drives of the iT4300 Series on a regular basis or whenever the user feels necessary
to a remote or a separate storage device. RAIDON will not be responsible for any
lost of data caused during the use of the iT4300 Series or the recovery of the data
