    Hi.

    Now call me a dufus, but I accidentally put the drives of my pegasus r6 12tb array back in the the chassis in the wrong order.

    Please tell me I wont lose data!

    Thanks

    I haven’t turned it on.

    Do you know if there is a way to tell what single drive is to go into what dock?

    This way I could put them back in the right order.

    Yes, there is a way to check.

    With your Pegasus you got a utility program that you can run. It’s Sunday and I’m at home now and don’t remember the details – but it was super easy. If you don’t figure it out before then, I’ll gladly verify tomorrow when I get into the studio.

    Once you launch the app, it has a display with all of your drives along the left side and their status. With each one selected, on the right there is a function (I think it’s called ID-Drive or something light that. When you press it, it lights up the appropriate drive bay.

    Poke around and you’ll likely find it. If not, ping me Monday morning (USA – EST) and I’ll get you more details!

    BTW, Promise tech support is really great too. I thought all four of my drives(r4 system) were dead after taking a power hit. But a call to these fellas in California and they were able to log in remotely into my system and run a few terminal commands and I was up and running within 15 minutes. Not only were the drives not dead, I didn’t lose any data. I still don’t understand the voodoo they did, but it was sweet!

    Cheers,
    Steve

    Yeah cheers for that. I had a remote fix on a drive the other day. Amazing.

    The drive I’m having problems with has a chassis issue and wont connect.

    Hey thanks.
