In addition, the resulting insufficient load to the enclosure power supplies might cause them to intermittently appear to have failed, falsely indicating that the power supplies are bad.

vDrive labels: A label is provided on the front of each hard disk drive. Use this label to record the location information for each drive before you remove it. Be sure to keep a record of the drives and their corresponding bays. Also, record the location information in Table 9 on page 110. If you install a drive in the wrong bay, you might lose data.
vDrive LEDs: Each drive tray has two associated LEDs, a green activity LED and an amber status LED. These LEDs indicate the status for that drive.
