Taking Drive Bender for a test drive is a reasonably easy process. Both the Drive Bender's WHS interface and the Management console provide access to the Pool setup wizard. Using this wizard you are able to create a new pooled drive using any drive on your system without modifying the existing contents of the drive. To see how the drive gets modified, see Changes made to a drive being added to the pool.
Using this Pool setup wizard's test drive option, ensures a number of settings that can alter your system are disabled when creating a new pooled drive, or adding a drive to an existing pool.
