Show Drive Information Page
The Drive Information page appears when you choose Information > Drive Information from the menu bar, or when you click a port # on the Unit Details page. If you arrive at this page from the port # hyperlink on the Unit Information page, the line showing the port # you clicked on is highlighted.
This page shows a list of drives on the current controller and a summary of each one.
To see additional detail about a particular drive in the Drive Details window, including the SMART data, whether NCQ is supported and enabled, and the SATA Link speed, click the link in the Port # column.
Port #. The port to which the drive is connected.
Model. The model of the drive.
Capacity. The physical capacity of the drive. (Note that the capacity as shown on 3DM screen is calculated as 1KB = 1024. This amount may differ from the capacity that is printed on the disk drive, where it typically has been calculated as 1K = 1000. Consequently, the capacity of the drive may appear smaller in the 3DM screens. No storage capacity is actually lost; the size has simply been calculated differently for consistency.)
Serial #. The serial number of the drive.
Firmware. The firmware version of the drive.
Unit. The unit the drive belongs to, if applicable.
Status. The status of the drive: OK, Not Supported, Not Present, and so forth. If you need help regarding a status displayed here, please contact Technical Support. For more information, see Drive Statuses.

| Note: In most cases, the status of the drive will not correspond to the status of the unit, shown on the Unit Information page. Different status information is provided for drives and for units.

Identify. Check this box to cause the LED for this drive to blink in the enclosure. (This feature only applies when drives are in an enclosure that has a Chassis Control Unit (CCU) and is connected to the I2C Chassis Control connector on the 9550SX, 9590SE, or 9650SE controller.)
