I am not that experienced with Windows, but I need to use a Windows server for my FileMaker server, so now have an instance of Windows Server 2008 R2 at a hosting site.
It's supposed to come with 120 GB of SSD storage, and I want to confirm that the drive is really SSD. I've searched around trying to find an answer, but haven't found one yet. There seems to be checks for this for Windows 10, but they don't apply to Windows Server 2008 R2.
In the Server Manager, Drive C: is just listed as Simple, Basic, NTFS, Healthy.
In the Device Manager the drive appears as VMWare Virtual Disk SCSI disk device. That is what first got me to thinking because I haven't used SCSI connectors for years.
If I control-click on the drive and check the properties, there are various tabs (General, Tools, Harware, etc.) but none of them give a drive type or model number or anything like that.
Under the Tools tab I see options for Error Checking, Defragmentation and Backup. I understand for Windows 10 there would also be an Optimize option here which would show the drive type, but that doesn't appear on this server.
Windows PowerShell is also installed, and if there is some command line query I can use for this it would be nice to know.
Everything is working, I would just like to know about the drive type, which is supposed to be enterprise grade SSD.
Thanks.
