[Thunder2 Duo Pro] How do I set the RAID mode?
The new RAID mode can be confirmed either by pressing the [Set RAID] button while the device is turned on or by power cycling it.
- Install the drives.
- Before re-assembling the enclosure, set the RAID switch to your preferred RAID mode. Use a little screw driver or the tip of a knife and rotate the switch until the arrow points to the correct number.
No.15 = RAID 0
No.30 = Span
No.75 = RAID 1
No.110 = Non-RAID - Turn on your computer, connect the Thunderbolt or the USB cable and then plug in the power adapter. The Thunder2 Duo Pro should now be up and running.
- Use the disk utility (Mac) or the disk management tool (Windows) to format your drive(s). Depending on the RAID mode, the volume is labelled differently.
RAID 0 = AKiTiO Fast Media
RAID 1 = AKiTiO Safe Media
SPAN = AKiTiO Big Media
Non-RAID = "Model name" of the individual drives
