The Nutanix Web GUI provides a feature to help locate a specific HDD. When the front LEDs are turned on using the Nutanix Web GUI, the HDD or SSD you are trying to locate continues to blink as long as there is I/O activity. The other HDDs or SSDs blink twice every second (in addition to blinking because of I/O activity). The HDD or SSD you are trying to locate does not blink twice every second.
