5. Instruccions de funcionament

Configuració RAID

The JEYI Quad NVMe Enclosure supports various RAID modes to suit your needs for speed, redundancy, or combined capacity. These modes include RAID 0 (Striping), RAID 1 (Mirroring), RAID 5 (Striping with Parity), and JBOD (Just a Bunch Of Disks).

RAID setup is software-based and can be configured using your operating system's built-in tools:

• macOS: Use RAID Assistant.
• Windows: Use Storage Spaces.
• Linux: Use mdraid/mdadm.

Refer to your operating system's documentation for detailed instructions on setting up RAID volumes.

6. Manteniment

L'aliatge d'alumini casing of the enclosure is designed for effective heat dissipation. It is normal for the casing to feel slightly warm during operation, especially under heavy load, as it actively transfers heat away from the SSDs. The surface safe temperature is up to 75°C (~167°F).

• Ventilació: For optimal performance and longevity, it is recommended to use the enclosure in a well-ventilated environment.
• Cooling Accessories: The enclosure can be paired with an external cooling fan for enhanced thermal management during prolonged heavy use.

7. Solució De Problemes

• Device Not Recognized/Slow Speeds on AMD Systems: While fully compatible with Intel and Apple systems, the Quad Enclosure (ASM2464PDX) may experience issues with some AMD-based devices, primarily limited to their USB4.0 and Thunderbolt interfaces. Standard USB 3.2 ports on AMD systems are unaffected and will function normally. We strongly recommend AMD users verify compatibility with their specific hardware before purchase.
• Enclosure Feels Warm: L'aliatge d'alumini casing may feel slightly warm due to heat conduction. This is a normal function of the enclosure's heat dissipation design and is not a quality issue. The surface safe temperature is 75°C (~167°F).
• RAID Configuration Issues: Ensure all target drives have a capacity larger than the source drive when performing cloning operations, otherwise, the clone may fail. For RAID setup, refer to your operating system's specific tools (RAID Assistant for macOS, Storage Spaces for Windows, mdraid/mdadm for Linux).
