5. ບໍາລຸງຮັກສາ
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your ICY BOX docking station, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- ທໍາຄວາມສະອາດ: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the docking station. Avoid using liquid cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the device.
- ການເກັບຮັກສາ: ເມື່ອບໍ່ໄດ້ໃຊ້, ໃຫ້ເກັບຮັກສາສະຖານີຈອດໃນບ່ອນທີ່ເຢັນ, ແຫ້ງແລ້ງຫ່າງຈາກແສງແດດໂດຍກົງ ແລະອຸນຫະພູມທີ່ຮຸນແຮງ.
- ການຈັດການ: ຈັດການອຸປະກອນດ້ວຍຄວາມລະມັດລະວັງເພື່ອປ້ອງກັນຄວາມເສຍຫາຍທາງຮ່າງກາຍ. ຫຼີກລ້ຽງການຫຼຸດລົງຫຼືຮັບມັນກັບຜົນກະທົບທີ່ເຂັ້ມແຂງ.
- ການລະບາຍອາກາດ: Ensure the docking station has adequate ventilation during operation to prevent overheating, especially when using multiple drives or during prolonged data transfers.
6. ການແກ້ໄຂບັນຫາ
6.1 Drive ບໍ່ໄດ້ກວດພົບ
- ກວດສອບການເຊື່ອມຕໍ່: Ensure all cables are securely connected to both the docking station and your computer.
- ການສະຫນອງພະລັງງານ: For 3.5” SATA HDDs, confirm that an external 12V DC power adapter is connected and providing power. 2.5” SATA drives and M.2 SSDs typically draw power from the USB connection, but a power adapter may be beneficial for stability with some systems.
- ບ່ອນນັ່ງຄົນຂັບ: Verify that the M.2 SSD or SATA drive is correctly and firmly seated in its respective slot.
- ລະບົບປະຕິບັດການ: ກວດສອບ Disk Management (Windows) ຫຼື Disk Utility (macOS) ຂອງຄອມພິວເຕີຂອງທ່ານເພື່ອເບິ່ງວ່າໄດຣຟ໌ຖືກຮັບຮູ້ແຕ່ບໍ່ໄດ້ເລີ່ມຕົ້ນ ຫຼື ບໍ່ໄດ້ຟໍແມັດ.
- ລອງ Port/Cable ອື່ນ: Test with a different USB port on your computer or a different USB cable if available.
6.2 ຄວາມໄວໃນການໂອນຂໍ້ມູນຊ້າ
- ພອດ USB: Ensure the docking station is connected to a USB 3.0 (or higher) port on your computer. Connecting to a USB 2.0 port will limit speeds.
- Drive Performance: The actual transfer speed is limited by the slowest component, which could be the drive itself. Older HDDs or slower SSDs will not reach 10 Gbit/s.
- ການໂຫຼດຂອງລະບົບ: ການໃຊ້ CPU ສູງ ຫຼື ຂະບວນການພື້ນຫຼັງອື່ນໆໃນຄອມພິວເຕີຂອງທ່ານສາມາດສົ່ງຜົນກະທົບຕໍ່ຄວາມໄວໃນການໂອນຍ້າຍ.
6.3 3.5” HDD Not Powering On
- ພະລັງງານພາຍນອກທີ່ຕ້ອງການ: 3.5” HDDs require an external 12V DC power adapter (not included) to operate. The USB connection alone cannot provide sufficient power for these drives.
- ຂໍ້ມູນຈໍາເພາະຂອງອະແດບເຕີໄຟຟ້າ: Ensure the power adapter used provides 12V DC and sufficient amperage (e.g., 2A or 3A) for the HDD. Using an incorrect power adapter can damage the drive or the docking station.
