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...)
