Hi.
I’m using a software raid, and I would like to see if its working or not.
There is a plasmoid called softraid monitor, but I cant place it in the desktop (it does not appears).
Is there any other tool?

best regards

Try “inxi --raid”

Do not keep us guessing on what you exactly did, which plasmoid, how do you install it, what did you do to place it in the desktop.

I right-click in the desktop, select “add graphical element” it appears a bar in the left side of the desktop with the graphical elements, i search raid, it appears “SoftRaid Monitor”, I drag it to the desktop… and nothing happens, while with any other element It is placed in the desktop.

So RAID seems to be working, right?

I tried right clicking the desktop but no “add graphical element” for me so I guess you are on gnome. I tried KDE “Add Widget” but no RAID widget.

No, I’m in kde. Plasma 5.18.6.
The software raid monitor plasmoid has a Trash can symbol in the upper right… maybe I had it from previous versions.
Doing a search I find this, which is obsolete, although I don’t know if it is the same one.
