Name Displays the name of the subsystem.
Slot ID
Displays the slot to which the PCIe SSD subsystem is attached.
NOTE: If Not Applicable is displayed, you can identify
the Slot ID by selecting the System → Main → Systems
Chassis → Slots object in the tree view and clicking the
Information tab. The Slot ID property on this tab may
display the correct information.
State Displays the status of the subsystem. Possible values are:
• Ready — The subsystem is functioning normally.
• Degraded — The subsystem has encountered a failure and
is operating in a degraded state.
• Failed — The subsystem has encountered a failure and is no
longer functioning.

Table 4. Physical Device Properties
Properties Description
Name Displays the name of the PCIe SSD. The name comprises the
bay ID and the slot in which the PCIe SSD is installed.
State Displays the health state of the PCIe SSD.
Bus Protocol Displays the technology that the PCIe SSD is using.
Device Protocol Displays the device protocol of the physical device, such as
Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe).
Media Displays the media type of the physical disk.
Device Life Status
Displays the life status of the PCIe SSD. The device life status is
determined by the following attributes:
Percent Lifetime Used — This attribute is determined by the
elapsed time since the start of use (up to three years) or
percentage of total bytes written (TBW).
Write Protect Progress — This attribute is determined by the
reduction in number of available spare sectors. If the available
spare sectors are less than 10 percent of the original pool, the
drive enters read-only mode.
Possible values for the device life status are:
