If a Controller item is selected from the tree view, it will display the 
model name and capacity of any RAID units and hard drives connected 
to the controller.  For RAID member disks, the hard drive charts on the 
right side will be shown with different colors according to the different 
RAID level.
When moving the mouse over the “Controller Information” label, it will 
be highlighted in red and show a tool-tip that tells that it can be clicked 
to identify the selected controller with the specified host LED flashing.

RAID Information

If a RAID item is selected from the tree view, it will display information 
for the specified RAID unit on the right side and also display the RAID 
member disks below that.
If the selected RAID is in a rebuilding state, it will be highlighted in 
green in the tree view, and the rebuilding animation will be displayed 
at the bottom-left and right of the window. The rebuilding percentage is 
displayed at the bottom-center.
Clicking the “RAID Information” label will identify the member disks of 
the specified RAID with all disk LEDs flashing at the same time.

Disk Information

If a Disk item is selected from the tree view, it will display detailed 
information of the specified hard drive on the right side and display a 
pie chart below that. 
If the disk is a RAID member, the application will show an “Advanced” 
button in the bottom-right corner. Click on it to browse the SMART 
information of the specified hard drive. If the selected disk is a member 
of a rebuilding RAID, the rebuilding animation will be displayed at 
the bottom-left and right of the window. The rebuilding percentage is 
displayed at the bottom-center.
Clicking the “Disk Information” label will identify the specified hard drive
