Step 3: Exploring Adaptec Storage Manager ● 42 Hold your cursor over any disk drive to see its status, port number, and maximum speed. You can also click the arrow, shown at right, to see this same information for all the disk drives at the same time. To reveal further information, use the View buttons to change how the disk drives are displayed, as described in Revealing More Disk Drive Information on page 43. A disk drive shaded in light blue is not part of any logical drive. A disk drive shaded half light/half dark blue (as shown at right) has some space allocated to a logical drive, and some space available. To view the logical drives associated with a particular disk drive, see Using Logical Devices View on page 42. Using Logical Devices View When you select a controller in the Enterprise View, information about the logical drives and arrays associated with that controller appear in the Logical Devices View. (A logical drive is a group of physical disk drives that your operating system recognizes as a single drive. For more information, see Understanding Logical Drives on page 74.)

Logical drives protected by hot spares have plus signs (+) beside them, as shown at right. Hold your cursor over any logical drive to see its name, status, and size. You can also click the arrow, shown at right, to view this same information for all the logical drives at once.
