The Device List
All the devices found are displayed in the Device list
(you need to be an administrator of the computer to see all the devices).
ReclaiMe uses specific icon for each device type:
| - for a typical hard drive, |
| - for a device connected via USB, FireWire, or eSATA |
| - for a complex volume or a disk array, |
Note that when searching for the available devices, ReclaiMe gathers a device self-diagnostics information as well.
The program selects the color of the icon for a particular device according to the self-diagnostics data.
Gray color means that a device is in good condition which corresponds to a normal (working) state;
red icon color indicates that a hard drive (or one of the drives in a complex volume) is faulty.
The devices are grouped into the sections on the screen:
- Disk images - the disk image files,
- Logical drives,
- USB devices - the devices connected to the computer via USB.
These devices typically include the memory cards connected through the devices
(cameras, mobile phones, MP3-players, PDAs) or through the card reader,
thumbdrives, and external drives in USB enclosure,
- Physical devices.
What information about the device ReclaiMe can give you:
- Model name - for the logical and the physical drives.
- Size - for the logical and the physical drives.
- Volume label - for the volumes (logical disks) if such a label exists.
- Filesystem type - is displayed for all the devices if ReclaiMe was able to determine the filesystem type
(read more about filesystem types).
- Connection type ("USB" for USB devices).
- Whether the drive is healthy or not - for all the devices according to the color of the corresponding icon.
The double click on the drive starts the analysis (has the same effect if you selected the drive and then clicked the Start button).
