Creating a Recovery Drive

To initialize all of the TeraStation's settings, or just restore the admin password to its factory default value, create a
recovery drive as described below.

For Initializing Settings

A system initialization drive will restore the settings on your TeraStation to their factory defaults. You can initialize
them without logging in to Settings.
Notes:
• Normally, making and using the system initialization drive will not affect data on the TeraStation. However, always
back up your data regularly!
• This USB drive can be used to recover the system if your TeraStation doesn't boot at all. In this case, if the data
partition is damaged, then all your data will be deleted by the recovery process.
