1. INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing G-SPEED eS from G-Technology,
Inc. (G-Tech)! Specifically designed for professional content
creation applications, G-SPEED eS features a high-speed
3Gbit/sec eSATA interface and when used in conjunction with
the optional G-Tech PCI Express (PCIe) RAID controller
provides RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and JBOD functionality with
greater than 2TB support in Windows 32bit environments.
Up to four G-SPEED eS units can be attached to the G-Tech
RAID controller for storage capacities to 16 TB and data rates
over 600 MB/sec. G-SPEED eS supports multi-stream video
editing workflows.
2. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The disk drives contained in your G-SPEED eS are delicate
electronic instruments and are susceptible to damage due to
excessive physical shock. Place the unit in a vented area away
from moisture or liquids. Please handle the unit with care. Do
not open the case. Doing so will void the warranty. If the
Product is returned with damage caused by improper
handling, the warranty will be void and liability will rest with
the user.
3. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

G-SPEED eS OVERVIEW
6. OPTIONAL G-TECH PCIe RAID CONTOLLER OVERVIEW
The optional G-Tech PCIe RAID controller connects
G-SPEED eS to your PCIe equipped workstation and
provides RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 & JBOD functionality. You will
choose your level of RAID protection when you set up
the G-SPEED eS in Section 8. For an explanation of
supported RAID levels, please refer to Appendix B.
G-SPEED eS is also compatible with third-party Windows
port multiplier aware eSATA host adapters. Refer to your
host adapter documentation to set up G-SPEED eS with
these boards.

7. G-SPEED eS AUDIBLE ALARMS
7.1 The G-SPEED eS enclosure is equipped with an audible
alarm that sounds when:
1. The internal temperature of the G-SPEED eS enclosure
reaches a temperature of 60° centigrade
and/or
2. When the main FAN fails or the RPM of the fan slows to
a state where the fan can longer adequately cool the
system.
In addition to the audible alarm, the Temperature/Fan
Warning LED located on the front bezel of G-SPEED eS
will illuminate.
If you hear an audible alarm and see the RED warning LED on
the front of G-SPEED eS, stop using G-SPEED eS immediately.
Check to see if the fan is spinning and move the unit to a
cooler location. If the problem persists, contact G-Tech
Support.
7.2 The G-Tech RAID controller is also equipped with an
audible alarm that sounds when:
1. A disk drive failure occurs
or
2. When the G-SPEED eS is removed from the RAID
controller without first selecting “Unplug” in the Array
Maintenance menu in the web GUI.
If you hear an audible alarm coming from the G-Tech RAID
controller, see Section 11 “What to do in the Event of a Disk
Drive Failure”. See Appendix B.1.7.2 for information on the
proper way to hot “Unplug” G-SPEED eS.
8. SETTING UP G-SPEED eS WITH THE G-TECH PCIe
RAID CONTROLLER
Connecting G-SPEED to your workstation and configuring
your system takes just a few steps as outlined below. For
this example we will be installing G-SPEED eS on a
Windows XP system. The installation is similar for
Windows 2000, 2003 and Vista.
8.1 Installing the G-Tech PCIe RAID Controller
1. Install the G-Tech RAID controller into an available PCIe
slot in your workstation.
2. Secure the RAID controller in place.
G-SPEED eS INSTALLATION GUIDE - Windows
8.2 Attaching G-SPEED eS to the G-TECH RAID Controller
1. Attach one end of the supplied eSATA cable to the eSATA
port located on the back of G-SPEED eS.
2. Attach the other end of the eSATA cable to Port 1 (port
closest to motherboard) on the G-Tech RAID controller as
shown below.
3. Attach the power cord to the back of G-SPEED eS and
connect the other end to AC power.
4. Power on G-SPEED eS.
8.3 Installing the G-Tech PCIe RAID Controller Software
There are three steps required to fully install the software
for the G-SPEED eS Controller.
1. Install the Windows driver
2. Update the Controller firmware
3. Installing the web GUI
Check for software updates at
http://www.g-technology.com/Support/
1. Install the G-SPEED eS Windows driver
