Hard coded list of drives

I have a few external drive boxes that are sometimes not powered on when the PC boots up. It would be nice to have a hard coded list of disk drives that the status window expects to see when the PC boots up. That way I could see right away if all the external boxes were powered on at boot time.
Thanks

Thanks for the idea.
I'm not sure this would be helpful: if the drives would be displayed (even if they are offline), the user may think the drives are available and ready to use, but they're not.
Anyway, it will be considered and may be available in a later version.

Thanks for the reply.
You could simply flag/display the drive in red or some other color than green.

Yes I agree to use a different color for off-line drives.
(red/green may be misleading as it may confuse user who may think the drive has problem).
This feature will be used to display drives previously connected to the system to allow checking their details, statistics when they're no longer available (replaced).
