Disk Management
NOTE: The software-RAID NAS system Dell-default configuration displays four disks and three volumes.
NOTE: The hardware-RAID NAS system Dell-default configuration displays two virtual disks made of the four physical disks and two volumes.
NOTE: The hardware-RAID NAS system displays the drives in Array Manager as SCSI drives. This is normal device display behavior for that system.
