2.4 Starting the Drives

All drives in the enclosure should automatically start their motors. If this has not occurred there may be a
power problem (an alarm and power fault indication would normally be active). if there is only one Power
Supply/Cooling Module present, the drive motors will spin up in a delayed sequence.

2.4.1 Disk Drives LEDs

Each drive carrier incorporates two indicators, an upper (GREEN) and lower (AMBER). In normal
operation the Green LED will be ON and will flicker as the drive operates.

2.5 Power Up/Down

Power Up
Ensure all JBOD enclosures are powered up prior to powering on the X24 enclosure.
Power Down
Ensure the X24 enclosure is powered down prior to powering down the JBOD enclosures.
To power the Enclosure down,
either
• Switch off the Power Supply/Cooling modules installed in the Enclosure.
or
• Remove AC Mains at the power source
