Fusion F3 Setup
A. Set Drive Configuration
The drives inside Fusion F3 are configured as a RAID 0 group (FAST),
and Mac OS Extended (Journaled)-formatted. If this configuration
suits your needs, skip to B. Connect Interface Cable on the next
page. Otherwise, follow the steps below to configure the F3’s drives.
1. Connect the supplied power cable between the Fusion F3 and a
grounded wall outlet or power strip; verify the cable is plugged
in securely. Leave the interface cable disconnected for now.
2. Power up the Fusion F3 and wait until the blue drive presence
LEDs stop flashing.
3. Turn the drive configuration selector switch to the drive
configuration setting you wish to use—FAST (RAID 0), SAFE
(RAID 1) or JBOD (individual drives) (Figure 1).
4. Insert a straightened paper clip straight into the hole next to
the Format label on the F3’s front panel (Figure 2), and then
gently press and hold the format switch for 6 seconds. During
that time, the LED next to the selected mode will first turn
yellow, and then start to flash after four seconds (Figure 2); if
you have selected a different configuration, the LED next to the
previous drive configuration setting remains lit green until the
configuration format is completed.
5. Release the switch and remove the paper clip from the hole; all
drive activity LEDs will quickly light up blue (Figure 3). The
LED next to the selected drive configuration will light green;
the new configuration is set (Figure 4). You may now format the
drives using your computer’s operating system drive formatting
application; go to page 6.
WARNING: Reconfiguring the drives in your Fusion F3
enclosure requires you to reformat them. Reformatting the
drives will erase any data on them! If there is any data on them,
back it up before configuring the drives.
Support Note: If you intend to use the JBOD configuration
and access both drives separately, you must connect Fusion F3
to your computer via FireWire or USB, not eSATA. When JBOD
configuration is selected and Fusion F3 is connected via eSATA, only
one of the two drives may be used.
Support Note: If you release the Format switch before the
configuration LED starts to flash, the drive configuration will
not be changed; you must repeat steps 4 and 5 again to change the
drive configuration.
