1. When connected to the computer using the USB2.0 interface connection, the Drive
position A must have a drive installed for the drive volumes in the other drive positions
to be seen in your computer.
2. The eSATA interface connection requires to be connected to an eSATA port with port
multiplication functionality in order for all 4 drives to be seen by your computer system.
See Section 6 "SATA Port Multiplication Overview" for more info.
3. The DT4-SB2 functions as a JBOD type of storage system. Therefore, each drive
installed will be seen as separate volumes by your computer. Also note that the actual
storage capacities may differ from the stated capacities on the hard drives once the
drives have been formatted.

4. System Temperature Overheat and Fan Failure Management

If the rear alarm indicator has light up red and the audio alarm sounds, this could mean that
either a system fan has stopped operating entirely or the system temperature has exceeded
over the default temperature of 60℃. When this happens, you may press the mute button
at the rear of the system to shut off the audio alarm and power off the system immediately if
in the allowed operational state then re-power on the system to double check and see if the
problem is still present. If the problem persists, please turn off the system and contact your
supplier or the STARDOM support for further assistance.

5. Visual Status Indicator Definitions

Front hard drive indicator
1. When the hard drive status indicator lights red, this means drive is not present.
2. When the hard drive status indicator is off, this means the drive is present and is on idling.
3. When the hard drive status indicator blinks blue, this means the drive is present and being
accessed for operation.
Rear power indicator
1.When the power indicator light blue, this means the power of the system is on.
2.When the power indicator is off, this means the power of the system is off.
Rear alarm indicator
1.When the alarm indicator lights red, this means either a system fan has malfunctioned or
the system temperature has exceeded the normal operational temperature allowed.
2.When the alarm indicator is off, no malfunctioning of fan and no system overheat are
present.

6. SATA Port Multiplication Overview

The DT4-SB2 utilizes the SATA port multiplication function where storage read/write of data to
multiple hard drives can be performed through one single eSATA interface connection rather
than multiple. In other words, once you've connected the DT4-SB2 using the eSATA interface
connection to the computer system, all hard drives installed would appear on the operating
system for storage purposes. However, this would mean the eSATA host connectivity in the
computer system will also require to being equipped with the port multiplication function.
Normally, if your computer system is not equipped with such, you are required to purchase
a PCI eSATA expansion adapter card with the port multiplier function available. You may
check with your supplier of the DT4-SB2 or various computer storage component resellers to
purchase an adapter card. If you have any questions about purchasing, please log on to
