3-4 Drive Carrier LEDs

SATA Drives

Each SATA drive carrier has two LEDs:

Green:

When illuminated, the green LED on the Serial ATA drive carrier indi-

cates 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:

The red LED to indicate an SATA drive failure. If one of the SATA drives

fails, you should be notifi ed by your system management software. Please refer

to Chapter 6 for instructions on replacing failed SATA drives.

•

HDD

Power

Indicates power is being supplied to the system's power supply units. This LED

should normally be illuminated when the system is operating.

Indicates IDE channel activity. On the NovaScale R423, this LED indicates SATA

and/or DVD-ROM drive activity when fl ashing.
