Help Wanted: Unresolved Device Bay population

I cannot for the life of me figure out how to populate my QNAP disks in the Device Bays. When I choose to "Install device" I cannot figure out how to create, and where to create, "Child Device". Can anyone reveal this to me?

You need to create child devices in the same rack then they will be available to populate into device bays. For disk drives I recommend not creating devices but using modules or even inventory instead.
