1. Use a USB to serial cable to connect to the COM port of the RAID array to the laptop.

2. Open putty and select serial connection. Verify the COM port no of USB to serial connector in device manager (on laptop) and set the serial port speed to 38,400 and click open.


3. The screen opens up the storage firmware screen, where we select Terminal (VT100 Mode).
