II. Empty Drive Bays
For the slots that are not occupied by drives, a carrier blank is provided to maintain proper cooling,
maintain a uniform appearance to the unit, and provide EMI shielding.
III. Diskless Configuration Support

IV. Hard Drive LED Indicators
Each disk drive carrier has two LED indicators visible from the front of the system. One is a green LED
for disk activity and the other is a bicolor (green/amber) LED for status information. The activity LED is
driven by the disk drive during normal operation. The bicolor LED is controlled by the SEP device on the
backplane. Both LEDs are used to indicate certain conditions under direction of a storage controller.
