Installation
Installing Drives in the Enclosure
1. Remove the screws holding the rear panel
in place, then slide the rear panel out from
the enclosure.
2. Place the first 3.5” SATA hard drive into
the tray, then slide it forward until the drive
interface is firmly connected to the SATA
connector on the SAT3520U2ER/
SAT3520UERGB. Repeat this step with
the second 3.5” SATA hard drive, using the
remaining tray.
If connecting the enclosure to a host computer using the eSATA
port, please note that in order to use some of the RAID modes of the
enclosure, the eSATA port on the host computer system must provide
Port Multiplier support. If the eSATA port does not offer Port Multiplier
support, only one of the installed drives will be accessible.

3. Secure the drives to the Enclosure tray,
using the provided screws.
4. Select the operating mode for your hard drive using the DIP Switches
shown below. Once you have set the DIP switches according to the
desired RAID mode, press the Reset Button to save changes.

attached) into the Enclosure.
6. Secure the Enclosure tray within the Enclosure, using the screws
removed in step 1.
Connecting SAT3520U2ER to the Host Computer
Once the hard drives have been installed within the Enclosure and the
necessary dipswitch settings have been made:
1. Connect the power adapter (included) to the power adapter socket
on the rear panel of SAT3520U2ER. Connect the remaining end of the
power adapter to an available power outlet.
2. Connect SAT3520U2ER to the host computer using either an eSATA or
USB cable (both included).
NOTE: if using eSATA, the host controller on the computer system needs
to support Port Multiplier technology.
Partitioning Installed Drives
Once the necessary connection (either eSATA or USB) has been made to
the host computer, from the host computer operating system:
1. Right-click on the My Computer icon and select Manage.
