Viewing Drive Assignments

The View Drive Assignments <2> option in the Main Menu displays whether drives are

assigned to a disk array or are unassigned.

Under the “Assignment” column, drives are labeled with their assigned disk array or shown as

“Free” if unassigned. Such “Free” drives can be used for a future array or used as a spare drive

when a drive fails in a mirrored array, provided the free drive’s capacity is equal to or larger

than the smallest array member. Unassigned drives are not accessible by the OS. The menu

also displays the data transfer mode that relates to speed used by each drive (U5 refers to

100MB/sec transfers, U4 refers to 66MB/sec transfers, etc...)
