Quick Install
NOTE: If you have purchased more than one StorCenter ix2, complete all steps on one before setting up
additional devices.
1. Use the included network cable to connect the StorCenter device to a network hub or switch.
2. Connect the included power cord to the back of the StorCenter device and an Uninterruptible Power Supply
(UPS).
3. Power on the StorCenter device using the power button on the rear panel.
4. Start your computer, wait for the operating system to load, then insert the CD.
NOTE: For best results use a computer that is connected to the same router, hub, or switch as the StorCenter
device.
NOTE: If the software doesn’t run automatically, double click on the CD icon, then double click the Setup
icon.
5. Install the StorCenter Manager software. Once the installation completes, the StorCenter Manager software
will launch automatically.
NOTE: StorCenter Manager will automatically scan your network when launched. If you receive a message
from Windows Firewall alerting you of network activity, click the Unblock button.
6. Once the StorCenter Manager software has found the StorCenter device, follow the Device Setup Wizard that
will help you create an administrator account and configure the StorCenter device. Once the configuration
has been completed, you will be connected to the StorCenter ix2.
Using Your StorCenter Network Hard Drive
Disconnecting the Drive
CAUTION: To prevent data loss, do not disconnect the drive during data transfer. The activity light on the drive
flashes blue when it is transferring data. Use caution when moving the drive while it is connected to power.
Discovering Your Drive with StorCenter ix2 Manager
StorCenter Manager allows users to easily configure the Iomega StorCenter Network Storage Drive. Simply run
the tool on each computer connected to your network to quickly assign a drive letter for browsing the drive.
For more information on Iomega StorCenter Manager, see the user’s manual on the Solutions CD.
Backing Up with Your Drive
Iomega recommends periodic system backups and more frequent data backups to ensure that your critical data
is always protected. The frequency of your backups should depend on the importance of your data. To protect
your data, you can simply drag and drop copies of your critical files onto the drive, or you can use the included
software to schedule regular backups.
Set your backup strategy based on information that is most valuable and important to you. If you are using the
drive for primary data storage of critical files, it is recommended that you back up the drive to another device.
For complete setup instructions and more information on backup strategies, install the software and select Help.

See the Solutions CD for a user’s manual in HTML format. If you have additional questions on your new drive and
software, visit www.iomega.com and check the Support area.
Troubleshooting
Drive Not Detected
If the Iomega StorCenter ix2 Manager cannot detect the drive, try the following suggestions:
Make sure the drive is powered on. The indicator light on the front of drive should be solid blue.
Make sure you are using a functional Ethernet cable. Verify that the link LED on the back of the drive is on.
• Try re-running StorCenter ix2 Manager to assign a drive letter for the Iomega StorCenter Network Hard Drive.
You should run StorCenter Manager on each computer connected to your network.
NOTE: The drive will not be detected if it is powering up when StorCenter Manager runs. Wait until the indicator
light is solid blue and run StorCenter Manager again.
If the drive is still not detected, check the support information on www.iomega.com.
Limited Warranty
Iomega warrants this hardware product to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for the warranty period. This non-
transferable, limited warranty is only to you, the first end-user purchaser. The warranty begins on the date of purchase and lasts
for a period of one (1) year for product purchased in the Americas, the Asia-Pacific region, or non-European Union nations in
Europe, the Middle East, or Africa; ninety (90) days for Iomega reconditioned products purchased in these regions; or, two (2)
years for product purchased by an end-user in member nations of the European Union.
This warranty does not apply to: (a) Iomega software products; (b) expendable components such as fuses or bulbs; or (c) third
party products, hardware or software, supplied with the warranted product. Iomega makes no warranty of any kind on such
products which, if included, are provided “AS IS.” This warranty also excludes damage caused by accident, misuse, abuse, use of
non-Iomega approved media, exposure of media to excessive magnetic fields, or external environmental causes.
Your sole and exclusive remedy for a covered defect is repair or replacement of the defective product, at Iomega’s sole option
and expense (shipping may be charged), and Iomega may use new or refurbished parts or products to do so. The replaced part/
product will be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty or three (3) months from the date of shipment of such parts/
products, whichever is longer. If Iomega is unable to repair or replace a defective product, your alternate exclusive remedy shall
be a refund of the original purchase price.
The above is Iomega’s entire obligation to you under this warranty. IN NO EVENT SHALL IOMEGA BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT,
INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, INCLUDING LOSS OF DATA, USE, OR PROFITS EVEN IF IOMEGA HAS
BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. In no event shall Iomega’s liability exceed the original purchase price of
the drive or the media disk. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so
the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
Obtaining Warranty Service
You must notify Iomega within the warranty period to receive warranty service. Just as technology and market conditions vary,
Iomega’s specific customer support policies (including fees for services) and procedures change over time. To obtain information
about Iomega’s current policies or warranty service, please visit our website at www.iomega.com/supportpolicy.html or write to:
Iomega Customer Service, 4059 South 1900 West, Roy, UT 84067. Contact Information for Iomega Customer Service in Europe
can be obtained on our Support website at www.iomega.com/europe/support. If your product is eligible for warranty service, you
will be required to return it to Iomega, along with proper identification, a return authorization number obtained from the Iomega
website or provided by the Iomega representative, and proof of purchase. Iomega will not protect, recover, or return data during
warranty service so you should duplicate your data before shipment.
Limitations
THE ABOVE WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. To the extent permitted
by applicable law, IOMEGA SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Any implied warranty required by applicable law shall be limited in
duration to the express warranty term. Some jurisdictions do not allow disclaimers of implied warranties or limitations on how
long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you
may also have other rights that vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Any suit for breach of any warranty on your Product must be
filed within one (1) year of the first date the suit could have been brought.
