Figure 9. 3BM Configuration Utility Main Display

The main 3BM screen shows a list of available drives. After you have configured one or more drives, it also lists the existing configuration.

„Available Drives lists the drives that are available to create units and hot spares.

„Exportable Units lists any existing units along with the drives contained in the units.

„Incomplete Drives and Others. If you connected drives to the controller that were previously used on a 7000/8000-series 3ware RAID controller, they may appear in a section titled Incomplete Drives and Others. Before you can use these drives, they must be deleted. For more information, see the discussion of Deleting Units in 3ware 9000 Series Serial ATA RAID Controller User Guide.
