    NOTES
    (*) The Nodegrid Net Services Router supports a maximum of 2 SATA drives, which can be divided into 2 Storage cards or in one M.2 SATA card.
     (**) The Secure Isolated Mode allows for the management of the cards as if they would be located in a normal Slot, but the network traffic is isolated from any other slot.

    Configure Extra Storage Devices on NSR

    IMPORTANT
    When additional storage is added, special steps are required to allow the system to see more than one disk (i.e., use both storage and an LTE/M2.SATA module).

    If using Storage and LTE/M2.SATA:

    • LTE/M2.SATA must be installed in slot 4.
    • Storage module must be installed in slot 5.
    • M2.SATA must be installed in Channel A.
    • Modem must be installed in Channel B.
    1. In the WebUI, go to System :: Slots :: 5.
    2. Select Allow SATA card in slot 5 checkbox.
    3. Click Save.
