Select a number in the Duration spinner box to specify the duration (in days) of the media scan. The Media Scan duration specifies the number of days over which the media scan should run on the eligible logical drives. Note: The controller uses the duration period, in conjunction with its knowledge of which logical drives must be scanned, to determine a constant rate at which to perform media scan activities. This rate is maintained regardless of host I/O activity. |
