3. Hardware Requirements and Precautions 1. Since ST2-TB will delete all data files in your two HDDs/SSDs at its first-time use, please be informed that you shall first save all your personal data files into a safe memory space before starting setting your new ST2-TB to avoid any data loss during your start-up process. 2. Please make sure that the hard drives are free from bad blocks or defects prior to installation in order to avoid system crashes or data loss. 3. Whenever turning off or unplugging your ST2 from your computer system, please always remember to safely remove it from your operating system first. 4. When your ST2 connects to the computer system, please do not remove, insert or even swap any hard drive while data transfer is being performed. 5. A WARNING to you if you plan to delete or switch your original RAID setting:if you plan to delete or switch your original RAID setting, please always duplicate your personal data before deleting or changing it. 6. ST2-TB uses a 12V/5V AC/DC Adapter. Please do not use other non-certified Power Adapter to avoid damaging to your ST2 unit. 7.

After installing two HDDs into Trays, please insert them into ST2, and then latch the handle. Please switch RAID Dip-switch to JBOD mode at back-plate. Please connect the Thunderbolt Cable, and then connect AC/DC Adapter to the product. Please turn on power. a. After turning on power, the HDD/SSD Indicator will be changed with the following sequence, Red > Off > Blue, and then, ST2-TB is ready for use. 3
Step 8 b. In case if the HDD/SSD Indicator shows Red > Off > Blue Flashing, please use a pin to press the RESET Button for 3 seconds, and wait until the HDD/SSD Indicator is changed to Blue from Blue Flashing, your ST4-TB is then ready for use. While your ST2-TB is ready for use, please follow the instruction of "F. The Standard Procedure to Switch RAID Setting" in Chapter 5 and set the RAID mode to what you want. You could then start using your ST2-TB now. 5. RAID Modes and How to Switch between the RAID Modes A. Please clear the RAID setting and format your two used HDDs before starting using your new ST2-TB. B. Please keep a copy of all your personal data into a safe storage space before you set RAID mode at your ST2-TB unit. C. JBOD (Factory defaults): Two independent storage volumes with no data protection feature. D. RAID-1: One independent data storage with data protection feature. Other features: RAID 1 data protection feature is to duplicate all your personal data into the second HDD, and ST2 could still work in case if one of the HDDs becomes defect. ** ST2 won t help data protection if anyone of the two HDDs is out of working. If you use two different memory size HDDs, ST2 will only use the maximum memory capacity up to the small HDD one. ** For example: if your two HDDs are with 1TB & 2TB memory capacity each, ST2 s maximum memory will be up to 1TB. E. RAID-0: One big independent a storage with accelerated data transfer rate but with no data protection feature. F. The Standard Procedure to Switch RAID Setting Step-1: Please first connect ST2-TB to your Mac. Step-2: Please set RAID Dip Switch to the position you choose. Step-3: Please use the Key to press the hidden RESET key at the back-plate, hold and wait for the end of Blue-Purple LED blinking till a stable Blue light. Step-4: Please turn off your ST2-TB, and re-turn it on again. You now have reset ST2 with a new RAID mode successfully. A WARNING to you if you plan to delete or switch your original RAID setting: If you plan to delete or switch your original RAID setting, please always duplicate your personal data before deleting or changing it. 4

Common Technical Questions 1. ST2-TB will always stay SLEEP Mode if (a) it doesn't connect it to Mac Computer, and (b) your Mac Computer is Power-Off. 2. ST2-TB will also stay SLEEP Mode if your Mac Computer gets into SLEEP or IDLE Mode too. 3. In case if you use two old HDDs which already have other RAID setting, we would strongly suggest you to first reset them with JBOD mode at your ST2 before setting them to the RAID mode you will use ST2-TB. 5
