One or more new hard drives are connected to the server

I often see this message in the Windows Essentials Health Monitoring tab in Windows Server 2016 Standard.

 

One or more new hard drives are connected to the server

The following new hard drives are available for data storage, for Server Backup or for creating a storage space:
COVECUBE CoveFs__________ Drive #4

Resolution
To use the hard drive to store server folders, click Storage, and then click Server Folders.

To use the hard drive for Server Backup, click Devices, select the server, and then click Set up Server Backup or Customize Backup for the server.

To use the hard drive to create a storage space, click Storage, then click Hard Drives. In the task pane, click Create a Storage Space.

 

 

 

If I clear this information alert, it will generate again shortly after.

 

This is the Drivepool drive on my system. All appears to be working fine with the server. Client backups are being completed successfully.

 

Is this anything to worry about? Or do I continue to ignore it?

 

Drivepool version 2.2.0.740 BETA

You should be safe to ignore it. 

 

In previous versions of Windows Essentials, it would not generate new events like this for drives it's already seen.  So .... it's odd that it's doing so now.  

 

But it should be completely safe to ignore.
