This LED indicates IDE channel activity, SATA drive and/or DVD-ROM drive activity

when ﬂ ashing.

Overheat/Fan Fail

When this LED ﬂ ashes it indicates a fan failure. When on continuously (on and

not ﬂ ashing) it indicates an overheat condition, which may be caused by cables

obstructing the airﬂ ow in the system or the ambient room temperature being too

warm. Check the routing of the cables and make sure all fans are present and

operating normally. You should also check to make sure that the chassis covers

are installed. Finally, verify that the heatsinks are installed properly (see Chapter

5). This LED will remain ﬂ ashing or on as long as the overheat condition exists.
