Getting Started Step 3: Exploring Adaptec Storage Manager ● 41 Using the 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 67.) Controller 2 is connected to... ...28 disk drives... ...from which 3 logical drives have been created. The RAID level of a logical drive is indicated by the number inside the logical drive's icon. For instance, the logical drive shown at right has RAID 1. 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. Click on a logical drive to highlight the disk drives that comprise it in the Physical Devices View. Six disk drives (plus one hot spare) comprise the selected RAID 5 logical drive. You can also click on any disk drive to see which (if any) logical drive it belongs to. A disk drive shaded in light blue is not part of any logical drive.
