Span

The BIG storage policy

concatenates the two

physical hard drives as

a single large volume,

resulting in a seamless

expansion. Hard drive A

and B are concatenated

into a single virtual volume

in the Figure below with

a storage capacity that is equal to the sum of each of the

physical hard drives A and B:

Direct Mapping

The DUAL or JBOD (Just

a Bunch of Disks) storage

policy enables each hard

drive to be seen separately.

RAID 0 (Stripe)

The FAST storage policy, also

called striping or RAID 0,

presents the best data speed

by using both disks in parallel.

Hard drive data segments

are written to different

disks simultaneously which

increases performance, but

at an increased fault sensitivity

(two drive's worth of data may

be lost at a single disk fault.)

The FAST storage policy creates a single virtual volume that

is striped across both hard drives, with a storage capacity

that is equal to the sum of both hard disk drives.

How to Safely

Dismount and Turn Off

Your GForce3 Mega

What do 'mounting' and 'dismounting' mean? When a device

such as a hard drive is mounted, that means the computer

‘sees’ the device and is able to communicate with it. When

you dismount a device, the computer no longer sees it. The

device may still be running but the computer cannot access

it, as though the device no longer exists.

Never turn off or unplug a hard drive without dismounting

it first. Doing so could cause data on the drive to be lost or

damaged.

How to safely dismount and turn off the

drive with the computer running

Mac Users

Drag the icon for the external hard drive to the Trash. The drive will

dismount and you can then safely turn if off. You may then unplug

the power cord and data cable if you want to disconnect the drive.

PC Users

1. Locate the System Tray. The System Tray includes the

time display in the bottom right, and icons to the left of the

time. One of the icons will be an hot plug icon (

2. Left-click on (

). You will receive the alert message “Safely

Remove..” followed by the drive description and drive letter

for the device.

3. Left-click on the appropriate device (with the drive letter

matching the one used by the external hard drive). After a

few seconds, Windows will give you a message that it is safe

to remove the device.
