Chapter 1: About This Guide ● 15 Terminology Used in this Guide Because this Guide provides information that can be used to manage multiple Adaptec RAID products in a variety of configurations from DAS to SAN, the generic term "storage space" is used to refer to the controller(s) and disk drives being managed with Adaptec Storage Manager. For efficiency, the term "components" or "component" is used when referring generically to the physical and virtual parts of your storage space, such as systems, disk drives, controllers, and logical drives. Many of the terms and concepts referred to in this Guide are known to computer users by multiple names. In this Guide, this terminology is used: ● Controller (also known as adapter, HBA, board, or card) ● Disk drive (also known as hard disk, hard drive, or hard disk drive) ● Logical drive (also known as logical device) Note: For more information, see Understanding RAID on page 163 and the Glossary on page 174.
