Documenting drives SATA port -> ATA -> mount -> disk#


Recommended Posts

I've had some errors on my drives over the years and have noticed that error message sometimes reference the mount letter, sometimes the ata number and sometimes the disk number.  Then, if it's a physical problem I have to figure out which sata port the drive is on so I can find it on my rack.  Is there somewhere I can inventory all of this info?  I'd like to go from the physical drive serial number to the sata port, to the ata number to the unRaid mount letter to the disk number.

Thanks.

OK, I see that you mean the serial number of the disk.  But that screen doesn't tell me the ATA number.  And, now I have a new error message that references an MD number.  Nor is there anything here that tells me which port the drive is attached to.  So, in this example if Disk 1 is giving me trouble I'd like to be able to know where it is in my rack and which SATA port it is connected to.
