NOTE: If you have purchased more than one Iomega StorCenter, complete all steps on one before setting up
additional devices.
NOTE: Use the included rail kit to mount the StorCenter in your server rack. See the instructions included with
the rail kit for mounting instructions.
1. Use the included network cable to connect the Iomega StorCenter to a network hub or switch.

3. Press the power button on the front panel to power up your StorCenter.
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 Iomega

Setup icon.

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 Iomega
Protection Suite 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.
