Add disk bays to disk batch

Disk bays can be assigned to existing disk batches in order to apply same batch attributes for selected tasks (disk examination, erasure, etc).

Note:

Single disk bay can belong only to one disk batch at the same time.

Once a new batch is created, a new message will appear at the top of the Disk Bays view of the Disk Explorer window, prompting you to add disks to the new batch.
