image displays the physical layout of drives and the drive slot numbers. If a drive has a circled letter, it is a
member of a Storage Pool. If you hover your mouse over a drive in the image, the ToolTip displays the
drive model, size, and status, including if the drive is failing.
If you hover your mouse on either a Storage Pool name in the table or on a drive in the Storage Pool image,
all drives in the Storage Pool are highlighted.
