Testing any node results into permanent reports you can store in the application. As for how you can access the info it comprises, you simply need to double-click the node you are interested in.

Apart from that, its make and model are revealed, with the mention that undetected drives cannot be handled by the program.

As for the diagnosis your component receives, you should know that green suggests everything is OK, yellow stands for a warning, whereas red alerts you of an error, with a click on the CD or DVD disk providing you with extra details in the status box.
