Identifying the Failed Physical Drive
1.
Click Physical Drive View in Tree View.
2.
Look for a missing physical drive.
A physical drive that used to be present but is suddenly absent is the failed
physical drive.
In this example, there were four physical drives connected to the AMD
motherboard. Notice that there is no drive on Port 3. That is the failed drive.
This procedure cannot locate a failed drive attached to a SATA port multiplier
as all such drives have the same port number. If your port multiplier has
LEDs for each drive and you can see them easily, check for a LED that has
changed color or gone dark. See the SATA port multiplier’s user
documentation for more information.
