Identifying the status of a hard drive
When a drive is configured as a part of an array and connected to a powered-up
controller, the condition of the drive can be determined from the illumination
pattern of the hard drive status lights (LEDs). The table ("Hot-plug SCSI hard
drive LED combinations" on page

) describes the meanings of the different
illumination patterns.
