Setup Instructions
Follow the steps below to successfully set up your Cavalry Network Attached
Storage (NAS) with your computer.
Step 1. For optimal security and convenience, we recommend designating a
single computer to handle all NAS configuration settings.
Step 2. Start your computer and wait for Windows/Mac OS/Linux to load
completely.
Step 3. Connect the power adapter to the drive. Then plug the power
adapter into an electrical outlet. Turn on the power switch; the "Power" LED
will light up to indicate proper operation.

Step 4. Insert the Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the back of the CAND
and the other end to an Ethernet port on the network adapter of a router /
switch / hub. The "Link" LED will illuminate to indicate proper connection.
Step 5. It will take about 2 minutes to boot up the unit. During this time, the
"Link" LED will be blinking. Once the unit is booted up, you may proceed to
"Basic NAS Setup" on the next page.
NOTE: To shut down the unit, make sure all current downloads and transfers
are stopped before turning off the power switch. The unit will shut down after
1 minute. If the system will be off for an extended period of time, remember
to also remove the power adapter from the electrical outlet.
NOTE: To create a printer server, simply connect the printer via USB directly
to the NAS. The CAND can also host other devices.

Save your settings.
Step 7. Enter Setup again and double-click on "nas". Your default web
browser will open the Web Configuration page.
Step 8. Go to "Maintainance" >> "Disk Utility" to set up the hard drives.
Step 9. Go to "Maintainance" >> "RAID Settings" to choose which RAID
setting you want. Click on “Create raid system” to start building RAID level
and formatting. Do not perform other functions while formatting.
NOTE: RAID 0 provides no data protection and faster speeds, RAID1
provides data protection but with half the capacity of the total drive, and
JBOD makes the computer detect the 2 hard drives in the unit as separate.

Troubleshooting
LED light indicator does not turn on
Make sure the power adapter is securely connected to a working electrical
outlet. Secondly, make sure the Ethernet cable is inserted correctly into the
hard drive and the router. Turn on the power switch (page 7).
Computer does not detect hard drive
Be sure to wait at least 2 minutes for the unit to boot up. Make sure the
Ethernet cable between the device and the router / swtich / hub is securely
connected. It could take a few minutes before the setup utility will detect the
hard drive.

Loud noises coming from external hard drive
In most cases, loud noises coming from the drive suggest a defective drive or
a loose part. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Please
contact customer service for assistance.
One of the hard drives appeared to have failed
This indicates one of the drives may need replacing. The hard drive must be
replaced by another hard drive of the same capacity, brand, and model
number. Open the enclosure, remove the failed hard drive and replace with
the new drive. Close the unit. The new drive should rebuild automatically.
