The right panel of the MegaRAID Storage Manager window has either

The Properties tab displays information about the selected device.
For example, if a controller icon is selected in the left panel, the
Properties tab lists information such as the controller name and the
device port count. For more information, see

Controllers,” Section 8.3, “Monitoring Disk Drives,” and Section 8.4,
“Monitoring Virtual Disks.”
•
The Operations tab lists the operations that can be performed on the
device that is selected in the left panel. Some types of devices, such
as arrays and ports, do not have operations associated with them.
For more information, see
Chapter 9, “Maintaining and Managing
Storage Configurations.”
•
The Graphical View tab can be selected in the right panel if a
physical drive or virtual disk is selected in the left panel. In graphical
view, the device’s storage capacity is color coded according to the
legend shown on the screen. For example, on a physical drive
configured space is blue, available space is white, and reserved
space is red. For more information, see

Drives,” and Section 8.4, “Monitoring Virtual Disks.”
