2.5.9 HDD Bypass

HDD Bypass mode allows the connected FireWire hard drives to be

I/O” port on the FS-2/2E Rear Connector Panel.

1. To Exit this mode, press the EXIT key.

2. Be sure to properly dismount the FireWire drive from the computer

system before exiting HDD Bypass mode on the FS-2/2E.

The internal HDD function allows you to remove the front mounted IDE

drive from FS-2/2E without first having to power the unit down.

2. Answer YES to question, Remove Internal HDD?

To abort, select

EXIT.

3. Remove the disk drive from the FS-2/2E when prompted. To remove
