Product Description:
The MB662UEAB-2S is an enclosure that can store two 3.5” hard drives and has a built-in RAID to configure them for different RAID settings. It has two RAID configurations, RAID 0 and RAID 1, and supports BIG & JBOD. The enclosure also offers USB and both FireWire 400 and 800 interfaces. The MB662 also has a built-in fan with an adjustable speed control to increase or decrease fan speed. Like our previous MB664 models, the body of the MB662 is surrounded by a solid aluminum body, which allows better heat dissipation, and requires no screws or tools to install hard drives. The door is easily accessible by two buttons located on the top of the enclosure. The spacing inside allows enough area to dissipate the heat out of the enclosure. This is an ideal storage device for video and audio editors and is compatible with Time Machine. This enclosure also has a built-in security slot for the security cable kit.
 
Suggested Applications:
Add-on data/ media files storage to laptops, graphics & video editing, interchange of data between corporate/school/home workstations, data file backups.

RAID Descriptions

JBOD (Non-RAID): The two physical disks read as two independent hard drives in a single housing, so that two logical volumes mount on the desktop. Therefore, the computer will show two separate drives.

Note: The failure of one disk will not affect the other disk. Therefore, the data on the working drive will be intact and functioning.

BIG (Concatenation): The two physical drives are combined so that one single yet larger logical volume mounts on the desktop, offering maximum possible capacity (the available capacities of each disk are combined).

Note: If one physical disk fails, the data on both disks will become inaccessible. If you are concerned about data security, we highly recommend using Safe configuration (RAID 1 mode).

Fast (RAID 0 Mode): The two physical drives are stripped together so that one larger logical volume mounts on the desktop, offering the maximum possible capacity like in Big mode (the available capacities of each disk are combined) yet with greater speed than the Big mode (the speed of each disk runs faster to a certain level).

Note: If one drive fails, the data on both disks will become inaccessible.

Safe (RAID 1 Mode): The two physical drives are “mirrored” (RAID 1) so that one single logical volume mounts on the desktop. All of the data on one drive will be recoverable from the other drive (the available capacity of one drive cannot exceed the available capacity of the other drive).

Note: If one physical disk fails, the data can be immediately recovered from the second disk. No data will be lost if one drive fails.

Other information

* MB662UEAB-2S Reset: Restart the device to reset the RAID Level.
* It is better to use the same hard drive brand and memory capacity to use the RAID functions.
* It takes about an hour to rebuild a 100GB hard drive.
* Western Digital desktop edition HDD does not fully support RAID function; only RAID (Enterprise)
--edition HDD can fully operate with the RAID faction. Click HERE to see the detail information.

Caution: Changing the RAID mode destroys data stored on the MB662 series. If you have saved data on the drives, back up data before following these steps.

Product Supports

* When using the enclosure, if the drive doesn’t show in “My Computer”, there might be two issues.

1. You are probably using a brand new hard drive. You can initialize, partition, and format unrecognized drives using Disk Management.
Please click HERE to view the instructions to initialize, partition, and format unrecognized drives using Disk Management.

2. Your drive letter may be over lab with other drive by the system. Please go to the Disk Management and go “Change Drive Letter and Paths…” and select another letter for the drive.
Please click HERE to view the instructions to “change the drive letter and paths”.

3. Due to hard drive manufacturers changing signal voltage, LED activity light might not function with particular hard drives. If you notice any problem, please contact us.
