6. Спецификации

7 Смена на проблеми

• Не се откриени дискови:
  • Проверете дали сите кабли (напојување и USB) се безбедно поврзани.
  • Проверете дали куќиштето е вклучено во струја.
  • Check Disk Management (Windows) or Disk Utility (Mac) to see if the drives appear as unallocated space. If so, they may need to be initialized, formatted, and partitioned.
  • Try connecting the enclosure to a different USB port or computer to rule out port/computer issues.
  • Ensure the hard drives themselves are functional by testing them in another enclosure or directly in a computer.
• Бавни брзини на пренос на податоци:
  • Ensure you are using a USB 3.0 (or higher) port on your computer. USB 2.0 ports will result in significantly slower speeds.
  • Check the quality of your USB cable. Use the provided ORICO cable or a high-quality replacement.
  • Големи file transfers are generally faster than many small files.
• Проблеми со прегревање:
  • Ensure the enclosure is placed in a well-ventilated area and that the fan vents are not obstructed.
  • While the enclosure has cooling fans, continuous heavy load with multiple high-RPM drives can generate significant heat. Consider reducing the number of active drives if overheating persists.
• Power Issues with Multiple Drives:
  • If the enclosure struggles to power on or recognize all 8 drives simultaneously, especially during spin-up, it might be due to insufficient power delivery. Try powering on with fewer drives initially, then insert additional drives one by one.
  • Ensure you are using the original 12V/10A power supply provided with the unit.
• Activity Lights Incorrect:
  • Some users have reported that the activity lights may be wired in reverse order (e.g., Disk 1 light corresponds to the last bay). This is a cosmetic issue and does not affect functionality.

8. Информации за безбедност

• Не го изложувајте уредот на вода или прекумерна влажност.
• Избегнувајте паѓање или изложување на уредот на силни удари.
• Не обидувајте се да го расклопите или модифицирате уредот. Ова ќе ја поништи гаранцијата.
• Користете го само испорачаниот адаптер за напојување. Користењето на неправилен адаптер може да го оштети уредот.
• Чувајте го уредот подалеку од екстремни температури и директна сончева светлина.
• Обезбедете соодветна вентилација за да спречите прегревање.
