physical drive, because the light associated with the device you selected is flashing.

the following:
(Controller)
(CD-ROM drive)
(Tape drive)
(Removable-media drive)
2.
Right-click the appropriate Identify.
The ServeRAID Manager sends a command to the firmware (microcode) to
start flashing one or more physical drive or enclosure lights, depending on the
following:
v The selected object
v Whether the item and its subsystems are all controlled by an enclosure
device
Note:
Identify works only on controllers with a SAF-TE processor and the
appropriate firmware. If a device light or a series of device lights do not
flash, it is because all or part of the subsystem is not controlled by a
SAF-TE processor.
