Kurmak
1. Donanım Kurulumu
- Install the QXP-1600eS PCIe Card:
Shut down your host system (QNAP NAS, Windows, or Ubuntu server/PC). Open the chassis and install the QXP-1600eS PCIe SATA card into an available PCIe slot. Secure the card with a screw.
- Sabit Diskleri Takın:
Open the drive trays on the TL-R1200S-RP. Install 3.5-inch or 2.5-inch SATA hard drives or SSDs into the trays. Secure them with the provided screws. Slide the trays back into the enclosure until they click into place.
- Connect Mini SAS Cables:
Connect one end of the provided SFF-8644 to SFF-8088 Mini SAS cables to the QXP-1600eS PCIe card in your host system. Connect the other end (SFF-8088) to the corresponding ports on the rear of the TL-R1200S-RP enclosure. Ensure all three cables are connected for full bandwidth.
- Güç Kablolarını Bağlayın:
Connect both power cords to the redundant power supply units on the rear of the TL-R1200S-RP and then to separate power outlets or a UPS.
2. Initial Power On and Software Recognition
- Güç Açık:
Power on the TL-R1200S-RP enclosure first, then power on your host system. The enclosure will initialize.
- İşletim Sistemi Tanıma:
Once the host system boots, the drives in the TL-R1200S-RP should be recognized by the operating system (QNAP QTS/QTS Hero, Windows, or Ubuntu). For Windows and Ubuntu, you may need to install the QNAP JBOD Manager software and associated drivers (e.g., Marvell drivers) for full functionality and firmware updates. Refer to the QNAP website for the latest software and driver downloads.
- Depolama Yapılandırması:
On QNAP NAS, the TL-R1200S-RP can be used as a separate storage pool or volume. It cannot be combined with an existing storage pool/volume on the NAS. Configure storage pools and volumes using the host system's storage management tools (e.g., QTS Storage & Snapshots, Windows Storage Spaces, or Linux LVM/ZFS).
İşletim
Temel İşlemler
- Güç Açma/Kapatma: Press the power button on the front panel to turn the unit on or off. Always ensure the host system is properly shut down before powering off the enclosure to prevent data loss.
- Drive Hot-Swapping: Drives can be hot-swapped. Before removing a drive, ensure it is safely ejected or unmounted from the host operating system to prevent data corruption.
Depolama Yönetimi
Manage the storage within the TL-R1200S-RP using the tools provided by your host operating system:
- QNAP QTS/QTS Hero: Use the "Storage & Snapshots" application to create new storage pools, volumes, and shared folders.
- Pencereler: Utilize Disk Management or Storage Spaces to initialize disks, create partitions, and configure RAID or storage pools.
- Ubuntu/Linux: Use command-line tools (e.g.,
fdisk,mkfs,mdadm,zpool) or graphical utilities to manage disks and create file sistemleri.
Bakım
- Sürücü Değişimi: If a drive fails, safely unmount it from the host system, remove the faulty drive, and insert a new one. The host system's storage management software will guide you through rebuilding the storage array if applicable.
- Donanım Yazılımı Güncellemeleri: Periodically check the QNAP website for firmware updates for the TL-R1200S-RP and the QXP-1600eS PCIe card. Firmware updates are typically performed using the QNAP JBOD Manager software on a compatible operating system (e.g., Windows).
- Temizlik: Keep the enclosure free from dust to ensure proper airflow and cooling. Use a soft, dry cloth for external cleaning. For internal cleaning, power down the unit and use compressed air to clear dust from fans and vents.
Sorun giderme
- Drives Not Recognized:
Ensure the QXP-1600eS PCIe card is correctly seated and its drivers are installed on the host system. Verify that Mini SAS cables are securely connected at both ends. Check drive status LEDs on the enclosure. If using Windows/Ubuntu, ensure QNAP JBOD Manager is installed and running.
- Performans Sorunları:
Confirm that all three Mini SAS cables are connected to maximize bandwidth. Ensure the host system's PCIe slot provides sufficient lanes for the QXP-1600eS card. Check drive health and ensure they are not experiencing errors.
- Aşırı Gürültü:
While the enclosure's main fans are adjustable, the power supply fans may generate noise. Ensure the unit is placed on a stable surface to minimize vibration. If noise is excessive and unexpected, contact QNAP support.
- System Freezes/Instability:
Ensure the host system's operating system and drivers are up to date. Verify that the enclosure's firmware is current. If issues persist, consult QNAP's support resources or knowledge base.
For further assistance, refer to the official QNAP support website or contact QNAP technical support.
