DS300 problem indicators
Amber Hard Disk Drive Status LED is lit solidly.
Each hard disk drive has a status LED. When this
LED is lit solidly, it indicates that the drive has failed.
Note: When this LED is flashing slowly (one flash
per second), it indicates that the drive is being
rebuilt. When the LED is flashing rapidly (three
flashes per second), it indicates that the RAID
controller is identifying the drive.
