Wrg Type
Device is not compatible for use as part of an IM
array.

RAID array.
Wrg Intfc

Pred Fail
Indicates whether device SMART is predicting device failure (Yes, No).
Size (MB)
Indicates the size of the device in megabytes (megabyte = 1024 x
1024 = 1,048,576). If the device is part of a two-disk array, this field
reflects the size of the array, not the size of the individual disk. If the
device is part of a three or more disk array, this field is the size that
the disk makes up within the array. When creating a striped array,
the usable size of the array is determined by the number of drives times
the size of the smallest drive in the array. In arrays consisting of
different sized drives, excess space on larger drives are unusable.
