Three lights are visible in the lower right-hand corner
of the mass storage system front panel . These Light
Emitting Diodes or LEDs are connected to the hard disk
drives in the slots corresponding to the number 1, 2, or
3. The lights show hard disk drive self-test status and
activity. Lights for empty slots (or slots that contain
devices other than hard disk drives) will remain off,
since they are not connected. If a device other than a
hard disk drive is installed, it will have its own indicator
light or lights on its own front panel.
This is an abbreviation for Input/Output. A device that
has removable media, such as a tape or removable
disk, allows you
to
put files or information into your
computer or take information out. This function of
adding and removing data is called Input/Output, or
simply I/O.
A laser beam is a very narrow beam of intense,
single-wavelength (coherent) light used in the process
of reading and writing data on optical disk media. The
laser used to write on a rewritable optical disk drive is
set at a higher power than the laser used to read the
same data.
To load means
to
insert a removable disk or tape
medium into a disk or tape drive.
Refer to Rewritable Optical Disk Drive.
In this manual, mass storage system refers to the entire
box, including the power supply, all internal SCSI
devices, and associated cables and parts.
