HD6500

RX6022sas

RX6022sas supports multipath I/O for better stability and performance. This section will guide you through how to
connect the expansion units to your Synology NAS. Please follow our instructions below strictly to avoid system
error.

Note:

• RX6022sas comes with two SAS expansion cables (100cm and 200cm). Please use the longer one to
connect the farthest expansion unit to your Synology NAS.

• The primary and secondary ports on the back of the HD6500 are marked by stickers.

To connect RX6022sas with HD6500

1

Connect one end of the expansion cable to the primary port of your HD6500 and the other to the expansion
port of RX6022sas. Make sure the release band of the cable faces
and that of the cable faces
will not be correctly connected.

Connect one end of the power cord(s) to the power port of RX6022sas, and the other to the power outlet(s).
RX6022sas will automatically power on once the power cords are correctly connected.

Note:

• Your RX6022sas is equipped with a redundant power supply system, allowing for two power cords to be
connected. The system may be powered on with only one power cord, but we recommend using both cords
to avoid unexpected power failures.

• After you unplug the power cord, please make sure all indicators are o󰀨 before plugging in the power cord
again. Otherwise, the system may fail to boot.

• If you accidentally remove the expansion cable, DO NOT plug it back in right away. When this occurs, the
Synology NAS executes a number of tasks to prevent system error. Please wait a few seconds before
plugging in the expansion cable again. The time required is 30 sec for 1 connected expansion unit, 60
sec for 2 connected expansion unit, 90 sec for 3 connected expansion unit, or 120 sec for 4 connected
expansion unit.

• After you plug the expansion cable back in, please wait a few seconds for Synology NAS to recover data
path and work properly. The time required is 60 sec for 1 connected expansion unit, 120 sec for 2 connected
expansion unit, 180 sec for 3 connected expansion unit, or 240 sec for 4 connected expansion unit.

• If any expansion unit malfunctions, please remove the malfunctioning expansion unit and replace it with a
new one by repeating the steps above.

by the other party in any purchase order, receipt, acceptance, confirmation, correspondence or otherwise, unless each
party specifically agrees to such provision in writing. Further, if this Warranty conflicts with any terms or conditions of any
other agreement entered into by the parties with respect to the Product, this Warranty will prevail unless the other
agreement specifically references the sections of this Warranty that it supersedes.

5.4 Applicable Law. Unless explicitly prohibited by local law, this Warranty is governed by the laws of the State of
Washington, U.S.A. for the Customers residing within the United States; and by the laws of the Republic of China (Taiwan)
for Customers not residing within the United States, without regard to any conflict of law principles to the contrary. The
1980 U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods or any successor thereto does not apply.

5.5 Dispute Resolution. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Warranty, the Product or services
provided by Synology with respect to the Product or the relationship between Customers residing within the United States

and will be limited solely to the dispute between Customer and Synology. The arbitration, or any portion of it, will not be
consolidated with any other arbitration and will not be conducted on a class-wide or class action basis. The arbitration shall
be held in King County, Washington, U.S.A. by submission of documents, by telephone, online or in person as determined

proceedings shall be conducted in English or, if both parties so agree, in Mandarin Chinese. The arbitration award shall be
final and binding on the parties and may be enforced in any court having jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall be
deemed to prohibit or restrict Synology from seeking injunctive relief or seeking such other rights and remedies as it may
have at law or equity for any actual or threatened breach of any provision of this Warranty relating to Synology's intellectual
property rights.

between Synology and Customer related to the subject matter hereof. No amendment, modification or waiver of any of the
provisions of this Warranty will be valid unless set forth in a written instrument signed by the party to be bound thereby.
