Viewing Information About a Controller You can check the controller model, serial number, firmware and driver versions, and the status of the 3ware RAID controller in your computer. If you have more than one controller in your system, you can easily view information about each one using 3DM. If you are working at the BIOS level in 3BM, you access each controller separately. To see details about a controller in 3DM 1 Start 3DM and log in as an administrator. The 3DM Unit Information page appears, listing all the 3ware controllers installed in your system. The right-most column of the list shows the status of each controller. 86 3ware SAS/SATA RAID Software User Guide, Version 9.5.1
