3. Click OK.
4. After the HDD has been
initialized, the status of the HDD will
change from Uninitialized to Normal.
The HDDs which are free of working for a
long time can be enabled to sleep, thus to
decrease the power consumption of the
device and extend the life of the HDDs.
Click Menu > HDD > Advanced.
Check the checkbox of Enable HDD
Sleeping (by default), and the HDDs which
are free of working for a long time will be set
to sleep.
Uncheck the checkbox of Enable HDD
Sleeping, and the HDDs will be set to work
for all time.
Before you continue
Initializing the HDD will
erase all data on it.
