If the system will use only a single global indicator, attach the LED to
the two pins of the global activity/fault connector. The global fault pin
pair connector is the overall activity/fault signal.
LED
Normal Status
Problem Indication
Activity
(HDD) LED
When the activity (HDD)
LED is illuminated, there
is I/O activity on that disk
drive. When the activity
LED is dark, there is no
activity on that disk drive.
N/A
Fault LED
When the fault LED is
solid illuminated, there is
no disk present and When
the fault LED is off, that
disk is present and status
is normal.
When the "Identify Drive"
is selected, the selected
drive fault LED will blank.
When the fault LED is slow
blinking (2 times/sec),
that indicate disk drive has
failed and should be hot-
swapped immediately.
When the activity (HDD)
LED is illuminated and fault
LED is fast blinking (10
times/sec) that indicate
there is rebuilding activity
on the disk drive.

The 6Gb/s SATA RAID controller provides the connector for fault/
activity LED. Connect the cables for the fault/activity LEDs and the
respective connector on the 6Gb/s SATA RAID controller.
The following table is the fault/activity LED signal behavior.
