New page

This guide describes how to do RAID setting, and it only applies to [[X882]],[[X885]],[[NASPi Gemini 3.5]] or [[NASPi Gemini 2.5]]
* X882 is the storage shield of [[NASPi Gemini 2.5]]
* X885 is the storage shield of [[NASPi Gemini 3.5]]

'''Warning''' : Please backup your data before setup and switch, otherwise you maybe lost your data.

Please read [[Raid Instruction]] firstly. You can freely choose the four RAID modes supported by this device by setting the jumper cap.

Start your setup, please strictly follow the steps below;

'''1. Assemble your device'''，refer to the '''installation video''' of the corresponding device to assemble, only the top cover is not installed, because you need to use the onboard buttons^_^.
: <span class="tb_red">PS: USB connector must be insert</span>

'''2. <u>Disconnect power supply</u>, and choose your Raid setting, insert or remove jumper by the following jumper instruction:'''
* For '''RAID0''' setting, Both '''A''' and '''B''' jumpers need to be shorted
* For '''RAID1''' setting, Only the '''B''' jumper needs to be shorted
* For '''PM''' setting, No jumpers need to be shorted
and so on

'''3. Power on''' the this kit with the 12V 5A power adapter, wait for the Raspberry Pi '''OS to boot up'''

'''4. Press the <code>RAID SET</code> button for about 5 seconds ''', and release it till the blue LED indicators starts flashing, and it means the RAID setting is complete.

'''5. Remove power supply then connect again''', then turn on the device;

'''6. How to check if your RAID setting is successful?'''

After your device is reboot, then type the following command:
lsusb

The result is as follows
<pre>
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 152d:0561 JMicron Technology Corp. / JMicron USA Technology Corp. JMS551 - Sharkoon SATA QuickPort Duo
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 046d:c52b Logitech, Inc. Unifying Receiver
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 2109:3431 VIA Labs, Inc. Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
</pre>
The first line indicates that the USB device has been correctly recognized by the OS. (JMicron is the USB storage chip supplier)

lsblk -p
The result is as follows
<pre>
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
/dev/sda 8:0 0 298.1G 0 disk
└─/dev/sda1 8:1 0 298.1G 0 part
/dev/sdb 8:16 0 74.5G 0 disk
└─/dev/sdb1 8:17 0 74.5G 0 part
/dev/mmcblk0 179:0 0 7.4G 0 disk
├─/dev/mmcblk0p1 179:1 0 256M 0 part /boot
└─/dev/mmcblk0p2 179:2 0 7.1G 0 part /
</pre>

There are two HDDs/SSDs devices were found. (/dev/sda and /dev/sdb) to '''PM''' model;

Or
<pre>
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
/dev/sda 8:0 0 298.1G 0 disk
└─/dev/sda 8:1 0 298.1G 0 part
/dev/mmcblk0 179:0 0 7.4G 0 disk
├─/dev/mmcblk0p1 179:1 0 256M 0 part /boot
└─/dev/mmcblk0p2 179:2 0 7.1G 0 part /
</pre>
There is '''ONLY one''' HDD/SSD devices is found. (/dev/sda) to '''RAID1''' or '''RAID0''' model;

'''[NOTE]'''：

1. Once you set the RAID mode successfully, you need to partition&format&mount the hdd/ssd, so that it can be recognized by your Raspberry Pi OS. please refer to [[How to View/Partition/Format/Mount HDD/SSD]]

2. If you always think that the setup fails, please strictly follow the steps above. We have tested many times.

3. Or run <code>lsusb</code> and <code>lsblk</code>, and then send us the results to email: support@geekworm.com
