I have five harddisks running just now. Of these five I have two identical
models and want to remove one. By shutdown and pulling leads I could find
out which port is the one to remove but I am curious to learn if there is a
way to read the 0-5 port number from within XP to check against the drive,
e.g. G: that I want to remove?

Presently I do not know a way to see this information.

regards,

Paul,

After getting my Raid up and running I had not used the MSM program again
and had not thought to check it for giving me what i needed.
