Viewing Drive Assignments
From the Main Menu screen, press 1 to see the View Drive Assignments screen.
The View Drive Assignments screen reports physical (disk) drive assignments
and provides the following information:
Port – Shows the Port ID number to which each physical drive is attached.
Drive Model – Identifies the manufacturer, model, and model number (if
applicable) of the physical drive.
Capabilities – Refers to the data rate in Gb/s (Gigabits per second) of SATA
physical drive.
Capacity (GB) – Reflects the capacity in GB (Gigabytes) of the physical drive.
The effective capacity of the physical drive is slightly smaller than its maximum
rated capacity.
Assignment – This field identifies the logical drive to which the physical drive
belongs. LD 1-2 means logical drive 1, physical drive 2. JBOD also appears as
LD on this screen.
Unassigned physical drives are labeled Free. Unassigned drives may also be
used to create a new logical drive at any time.
Serial ATAPI devices, such as a DVD ROM, are shown as <SATAPI> in the place
of an assignment.
