I found the screen confusing, because:

1-The system had only one HD.

2-IIRC: selected state wasn't instantly recognizable. Repeated clicks on it 
toggled selected state on and off. Only after several did I figure "selected" 
out, and why the reaction to a click on the lower left link produced 
inexplicable responses.
