header

Ports 20-23
2x8-pin header
Connects to an LED that indicates whether a drive is in a fault condition. There is one LED
per port. When lit, each LED indicates the corresponding drive has failed or is in the
unconfigured-bad state.
The LEDs function in a direct-attach configuration (there are no SAS expanders). Direct
attach is defined as a maximum of one drive connected directly to each port.
NOTE: This header is used for RAID controllers with internal SAS ports only.
