The Physical Disks tab can be filtered to display Summary, Capacity, Chunklet Usage, Inventory,

NOTE:
In the following sections, where shown, the Device RPM number does not represent a
rotational speed for the drives without spinning media (SSDs). It is meant as a rough estimation of
the performance difference between the drive and the other drives in the system. For FC and NL
drives, the number corresponds to both a performance measure and actual rotational speed. For
an SSD drive, the number is to be treated as relative performance benchmark that takes into account
in I/O per second, bandwidth, and the access time.
