2.5 Drive Carrier LEDs
Your chassis uses SAS/SATA drives.
SAS/SATA Drives
Each SAS/SATA drive carrier has two LEDs.
•
Green: Each Serial ATA drive carrier has a green LED. When illuminated, this green LED
(on the front of 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.
•
Red: The red LED indicates a SAS/SATA drive failure. If one of the SAS/SATA drives fail,
you should be notified by your system management software.
