    •Factory default. Initiates a short disk test that takes approximately 2 minutes. After the disk test, a
    10-minute time-out period begins.
    WARNING:
    The factory default reboot process resets the storage system to factory
    settings, erases all data, resets all defaults, and reformats the disk to X-RAID.
    -If you want to cancel the factory default process, power off the storage system before the 10-minute
    time-out ends.The system powers down safely without causing any data loss.
    -If you want to reset the system to factory default settings, do not power off your system. After the
    10-minute time-out period, the factory default process begins.
