## Scanning for new or removed ready drives

Use this action to scan all SCSI channels for either of the following:

- Hard disk drives that have been added.
- Ready drives that have been removed.

1. Click a controller from the Main Tree.
2. Click Scan for new or removed ready drives .

   The ServeRAID Manager scans all the channels on the selected controller. You can stop the scan before it completes by clicking Cancel.

3. Click Done when you have reviewed the scan report.

### Removing ready drives

After physically removing a ready drive from a system or enclosure, the Main Tree still reports the drive as ready. The firmware does not communicate with ready drives, therefore the firmware does not report the drive as removed. To remove the ready drive from the Main Tree, use Scan for new or removed ready drives.
