  • Page 32: Chapter 4 Managing Storage

    Chapter 4 Managing Storage RAID Arrays The TeraStation supports many different types of RAID. Note: If you change the RAID mode, all data on the array is deleted. This is true for every procedure in this chapter. Always back up any important data before performing actions that affect your RAID. After the RAID mode is changed (except when creating a RAID 0 array), the TeraStation performs a RAID check that will take about 10 hours per TB.

  • Page 33: Working With Raid Arrays

    RAID 10 RAID 10 arrays are available for TeraStations with 4 or more hard drives. In this mode, mirrored pairs of drives in RAID 1 arrays are combined into a RAID 0 array. The usable space is equal to the capacity of the smallest drive multiplied by the number of hard drives ÷...

  • Page 55: Using The Terastation As An Iscsi Device

    Using the TeraStation as an iSCSI Device Introduction iSCSI is a protocol for carrying SCSI commands over IP networks. Unlike traditional SAN protocols such as fiber channel, which requires special-purpose cabling, iSCSI can be run over long distances using existing network infrastructure. Normal Windows formatting such as NTFS is supported.
  • Page 56 iSCSI Setup To use the TeraStation as an iSCSI hard drive, configure it as described below. If you are using Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003, or Windows 2000 Server, download and install the “Microsoft iSCSI Software Initiator” first. Connect the TeraStation’s Ethernet and power cables and configure the TeraStation’s IP address and its clock.
  • Page 57 Click Drives on the left-side menu. Enable iSCSI by sliding Click next to “iSCSI”. Click Create Volume. Enter a volume name, volume description, volume, and size, then click OK. Click Close. Connect the new volume. The process will depend on which connection software you’re using. For the iSCSI Initiator included with Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows Server 2008: Navigate to Control Panel - Administrative Tools - iSCSI Initiator and enter the IP address of the TeraStation in the “Target”, field.

  • Page 58: Advanced Settings

    The connected volume will be recognized by the computer as an unallocated volume. Assign and format the volume in Windows. When the format process is completed, the drive will be visible as an icon in “Computer” or “My Computer” and can be used as a normal drive on the computer.
  • Page 59 The following settings are available: HeaderDigest - Controls the HeaderDigest usage by the iSCSI target portal group endpoint. DataDigest - Controls DataDigest usage by the iSCSI target portal group (TPG) endpoint. MaxConnections - Controls the use of multiple connections per session (MC/S). InitialR2T - By default, R2T is used for unidirectional and the output part of bidirectional commands.

  • Page 60: Creating And Expanding Volumes

    Mutual Authentication in the TeraStation The TeraStation can perform mutual authentication. Dual passwords ensure that only authorized client computers can access the volume on the TeraStation.

  • Page 65: Hard Drive Replacement

    • Do not unplug a drive whose status LED is blue. Dismount it first or shut down the TeraStation before swapping a working drive. • When changing drives, the replacement drive should be a Buffalo OP-HDS series drive of the same size. • To avoid damaging the TeraStation with static electricity, ground yourself by touching something made of metal before handling any sensitive electronic parts.
  • Page 66 Press the power button on the TeraStation. When the replacement hard drive is recognized, the status LED will flash red. The TeraStation will start rebuilding the RAID array automatically. Drive Replacement (RAID 0 or JBOD) Drives in a RAID 0 array or JBOD mode do not automatically turn off in the event of a malfunction. Before replacing the failed drive, either dismount the drive from Settings, or shut down the TeraStation.
  • Page 67 For JBOD When the replacement hard drive is recognized, the status LED will flash red and the drive will be formatted as an individual drive. If this drive is removed from the TeraStation, shared folder settings such as access restrictions will be lost.
