Addonics Technologies RUBY CIPHER AES RCHD256ES User Manual

Enclosure and Drive Cradle Overview  
The drive enclosure is the enclosure where a SATA hard drive is mounted and  
secured by 4 screws.  
Drive cradle, also known as fixed tray, is the frame that mounts inside the drive  
bay of a desktop, server or any computing equipment. The drive cradle provides  
both power and data connection between the computer and the drive enclosure.  
The Ruby cipher drive cradle fits into any standard 3 1/4” drive bay and can  
connect to the computer via SATA or USB 2.0. This interface allows hot  
swapping the hard drive without restarting or rebooting the system. The Ruby  
drive cradle is compatible with all Ruby drive enclosures and Ruby cipher drive  
enclosures.

turning on the power of the drive cradle. The hard drive will not be  
detected by the computer if the power to the drive cradle is turned on  
without the Cipher key. Under such condition, the power on the drive  
cradle will have to be turned off and turned back on again with the  
Cipher key already inserted into the drive enclosure in order to detect  
the hard drive.
