Frustrated with long disk scans? If you have a SATA receiver or an eSATA port on your RADAR, but don’t have a drive connected to it, it will result in long scan times. If you have the current software package for RADAR, you can disable or enable these receivers as needed to speed up scan times.To access the Enable Disk ID dialog instantly, simply press the letter ‘E’ on either the Session Controller or KC-24 keyboard. This allows drives which are not in use to be disabled – speeding up access to file browsing, backup, and other functions that scan for drives.

To enable or disable a Disk ID:

  1. Press E to access the shortcut. The list of drive IDs will be displayed. (The eSATA port is drive ID #2.)
  2. Press the right or left arrow keys to select an ID, and the up and down arrow keys to select ‘Y’ for enabled and ‘N’ for disabled. Once the options are set, press the ENTER key to exit the menu.
