Scanning in Drives

Disk scanning is a process in which a newly installed drive is
introduced to the disk array system. You need to scan in a drive
when:
The drive is a new one. A drive is considered a new drive
if it is not yet displayed in the Physical Drives window.
The drive is a replacement for a failed drive which is
installed on a different channel or has a different SCSI ID.
If you do not scan in the drive on such occasions, the system will
not be able to see the drive, rendering the drive useless.
