I think its purpose is not discoverable. The button is located far away from the singular option to which it appears applicable. And yes, I'd prefer a 5 second time out OR a click elsewhere, that would cause a live update. Update on click is what happens with the RAID 1/0 checkboxes. I'm also confused by the difference in units, MB vs GB. Seems like the size field could be GB with a decimal just like the presentation on the left.
