    N5200PRO connect to PC with USB

    Hi,
    I have a short question to you all.
    I would like to put in my N5200 5 disk and make a raid 5. Then I connect it with USB to my PC. So what happen when one of my disk in the Raid 5 is broken ? in the manuel "N5200PRO_UM_V11_EN.pdf" on page 76 is in red written "When RAID is removed or damaged, all the data on the Target USB
    device will be deleted."

    Is that right that all Data is lost, I don't think so... Can anybody give me some support

    Thanks

    That red warning does seem to contradict the sentence directly above it.

    Dear Sir,

    The target USB volume base on RAID protection, thus if RAID DEGRADED we still able to access the data. But if it is RAID DAMAGED seem this data volume would damaged too.

    That makes sense Yvon, perhaps the documentation could be re-written to make it clearer?
