4.1 Precautions

4.1.1 Power on/off precautions

We highly recommended to switch the unit off when not in use. When re-locating the device or

when not in use for an extended period of time, we strongly recommend unplugging the unit.

4.1.2 Location and placing precautions

Avoid positioning your device in the following places:

• Locations with direct sunlight, next to radiators, other sources of heat.

• Locations with very high temperatures (more than 38°C) or humidity (more than 90%).

• Very dusty or sandy locations.

• Locations subject to vibration, shock, or with a sloping base.

4.1.3 Electricity and power plug

Careful attention must be paid to the following points in order to prevent damage, fire, and/or injury:

• When removing the power cable from the socket, pull on the plug fixture and never on the cord.

• Do not connect and remove the power cable with wet hands.

• Keep the power cable away from heaters.

• Never try to repair the power cable yourself or to modify it in any way.

• If the unit is dropped or becomes damaged in any other way, unplug the power cable.

• Always connect the power adapter to your device before you plug it into the power outlet.

4.1.4 6-pin FireWire and other cables

Use only the cables supplied or recommended by your vendor in order to avoid the risk of

malfunction, electric shock, and/or possible interference to the device. When using the 6-pin

FireWire cable, make sure to insert it correctly and not upside down, otherwise it may damage both

your device and the computer!

4.2 FAQ

Q: What file system should I choose to format my drive?

A: This will depend on how you want to use the drive but in general, we recommend:

• Windows XP/Vista  NTFS

• Mac OS X  HFS+ (Mac OS Extended)

• To use it on both PC and Mac  FAT32 (single file size is limited to 4GB)

Q: How many drives can fail before I lose my data?

A: For RAID 0, any drive failure will result in the data being lost. For RAID 1, more than one drive

failure at the same time will mean the data can not be recovered anymore.

Q: Can I install only one hard drive?

A: No, the Taurus Super-S LCM requires two hard drives.
