How to identify drive of Azure Virtual Machine with how it is shown at Azure Portal?

I am trying to identify which drive matches from Azure Virtual Machine with what is shown on the Azure Portal site.

I am trying to increase the size of one drive (H:\ drive) in VM from Azure Portal site.

This is how it shows up in VM: enter image description here

This is how it shows up in Azure Portal site: enter image description here

Where do I go about finding the right one to upgrade (from Azure Portal site)?

Currently, H:\ drive has 2 TB for the capacity, and I am trying to increase to 4 TB.

    I have created azure virtual machine and attached a new disk like below.

    In Disk management to make understand on your disk -> right click -> properties -> you can see LUN number -> in my case LUN8 is represent as disk 5

    enter image description here

    enter image description here

    My disk 4 is identify in E drive as LUN 7

    enter image description here

    Now in disk click on virtual disk. suppose You want to increase size of azure8 (my disk name)

    enter image description here

    If you click on 5 -> 5 is represent as disk 5 (G)drive as location on LUN 8 in my portal LUN 8 is azure8 disk name this way u can identify which drive is represent on which disk
