Drive Status Indicators

There are two LEDs on each Drive Carrier. They report the presence of power
and a disk drive, and the current condition of the drive.
The VTrak spins up the disk drives sequentially in order to equalize power draw
during start-up. After a few moments the Power/Activity and Disk Status LEDs
should display green.
