| Deltas | Displays the disk space occupied by the deltas. Instead of the column heading, an icon displays. |
| Ratio | Displays the ratio of On Disk Size by size of deltas. The amount is rounded down to the nearest whole number. For example, if the on disk size is 500 GB and the delta size is 249 GB, the ratio displayed is 2. If the ratio displayed is 3 or greater, the user may consider vacuuming. Instead of the column heading, an icon displays. |
| Auto Add | Indicates whether the *Auto Add Devices* function is enabled. |
