You need to be on System/Volumes tab and double click the "Gearwheel" on the left

Try benchmarking the speed with Nastester: http://www.808.dk/?code-csharp-nas-performance
There are several maintenance functions on the volume settings wheel (balance, disk test, scrub, and defrag).

Are the maintenance functions such as balance, disk test, scrub and defrag part of the Nastester program or something that should be there already?
I do not see these fuctions Xraid, format, global spare, new volume are teh only options I see.
Please advice.

You will find the maintenance functions if you click on the "gearwheel" shown in the box on the left of your screenshot

Click on the file to get a detailed screen shot.
There are services, update, configuration & backup, alerts, support but not option to scan the hard drive for errors, defrag or any other option?
Please advice.
