3-4 Drive Carrier LEDs

Each drive carrier has two LEDs:

Green: When illuminated, the green LED on the SATA drive carrier indicates drive activity. A connection to the SATA backplane enables this LED to blink on and off when that particular drive is being accessed. Please refer to Chapter 6 for instructions on replacing failed SATA drives.

Red: When this LED flashes it indicates the drive is rebuilding. When solid on it indicates a SATA drive failure. If a drive fails, you should be notified by your system management software. Please refer to Chapter 6 for instructions on replacing failed drives.
