Each hot-swap drive comes with an activity LED. If the LED is lit, it indicates that the drive is powered, but
not actively reading or writing data. If the LED is flashing, the drive is being accessed.
2 Drive status LED (yellow):
These LEDs are on SAS or SATA hard disk drives and solid-state drives. When one of these LEDs is lit, it

the drive is being rebuilt. When the LED is flashing rapidly (three flashes per second), it indicates that the
controller is identifying the drive.
