Viewing Drive Assignments
The View Drive Assignments <2> option in the Main Menu displays whether drives are assigned to a
disk arrays 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. 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 transfer, etc…)
