3. If you are not sure of the identification (pdisk number) of the disk drive module
that you want to format, use the identify function to get a positive physical iden-
tification of the module (see “The Identify Function” on page 7-31). You can
further ensure that you have selected the correct disk drive module by verifying
that the serial number on the front of the disk drive module is the same as the
serial number that is displayed on the screen.
