I. Removing Cover of RAID Tower Mini
After RAID configuration, it is compatible with any SATA
controller (RAID or non RAID). If you have configured individual
drives, you need to connect the RAID tower to a port multiplier
compatible eSATA host controller, if you plan to use eSATA
connection.
Loosen the 3 screws at the back of the tower
using a Philips screwdriver by turning
counter-clockwise. Separate the metal casing
of the storage tower from the housing by
lifting up the casing as shown on the photo.
After RAID configuration and you plan to connect to a USB2.0 or
3.0 port on your system, connect the eSATA to USB3.0 adapter
to eSATA cable and plug it into the USB port.
