How to map ports to bays layout in KillDisk Industrial

After configuring your disk bay layout to match how the physical bays look on your hardware, you need to map the bays to the proper controller ports. Doing this will let disks start appearing in the application and appearing in the proper bay on the disk bay layout.

We recommend you turn on the output console as it will help you identify what disk was plugged in.

The steps to easily do this is as follows:

1. Choose one of the disk bays you want to map.
2. Take a physical HDD and plug it into that bay.
3. Right-click on the corresponding bay you want to map the drive to in KillDisk Industrial.
4. Check in the output console, the temporary alias assigned to the disk (Example: “sda”). Select the proper controller, then click on the port from the drop-down that shows a drive connected to it.
5. Repeat for all the rest of the bays, plugging HDDs and mapping one at a time.
6.
