Disk Activity Indicators
These indicators show the status of each individual disk drive.

Disk Activity
Green
Disk drive is properly installed and locked
Amber
Disk drive is being accessed
Red
Disk drive is not present, is not properly
installed, is unlocked, or disk has failed
Red Flashing
Disk drive is rebuilding data
In the event that a drive fails, the Red indicator turns on and an alarm sounds. You can turn off
the alarm by unlocking the drive carrier.
The drive carrier lock acts as an On/Off switch for the drives and
provides security by preventing non-key holders from accessing the
drives.
To lock each carrier, insert the key and turn it in a clockwise
direction. To unlock a carrier, turn the key in a counterclockwise
direction.
