(Electrostatic Discharge) damage

Use an ESD wrist strap or discharge static electricity by

touching a grounded bare metal surface before handling,

installing, and removing the Velocity Duo. Observe proper

ESD grounding techniques. Store your HDD or SSD in an

anti-static bag until you are ready to install it in the system.

When installing and removing the Velocity Duo Card hold by

the edge of the printed circuit board (PCB), and avoid

touching components including connectors.

PCIe Gen 1 / Gen 2 slot

NOTE: Windows XP users and those using the Velocity

Duo with a boot disk (i.e. with OS already installed)

Before connecting your SSD to the Velocity Duo, please refer

to the directions below for installation of Windows drivers.

PCIe Gen 1/Gen 2 ( x2 slot or larger)

To ensure optimal RAID  functionality, both of the SSDs on the Velocity Duo must be identical (same brand, same

firmware revision and capacity) Additionally, prior to data cloning, each drive must be eroed out using a disk utility such

as Gparted, Parted agic, or a utility native to your OS. Since RAID  is strictly a performance-enhancing array with data

being striped across 2 drives, if one of those drives should fail, all data on both will be lost. When using Velocity Duo with

RAID  configuration, regular backup is recommended to minimie data loss.
