The hot-swap tray provides wires
for connecting the activity LED,
power LED, SCSI ID, power, and
SCSI signal. Connect the 8-pin
connector to the SCSI Address
pins according to the colors

tor to the activity signal pins ac-
cording to the colors shown.
Hot-Swap Tray Interface
The front of the hot-swap tray provides a keylock in order to switch the
power on, which also locks the handle, and switch the power off, which also
releases the handle. Two LEDs provide information on the power and activ-
ity status of the hard disk drive. When power is received by the hot-swap
tray’s connector board, the power LED will light. When data is written or
read to or from the contained hard disk drive, the activity LED will flash
proportional to the amount of data transferred.
To place the hot-swap tray into the device bay, you must lift the handle
45 degrees from rest position and then push the tray forcefully. If the
tray is snapped in place, the handle can be lowered into place.
