SAS/SATA Hot-Plug Hard Drive LEDs
The SAS and SATA hot-plug hard drive LEDs are located on each physical drive and visible when the
front bezel is open.
Activity LED—This green LED indicates the disk drive access activity. This LED is controlled by the
disk drive directly. When a drive is accessed, the LED shows a green light
Status LED—This amber/blue LED indicates the drive operating condition: normal, warning, or
failure.
Table 5–3 describes the LEDs signals used to indicate the operating status of a SAS or SATA disk
drive.

Description
No power, offline or not configured
Normal operation under power. no activity [green is on-solid]
Normal operation under power, disk activity [green is fluttering]
Offline, disk not being accessed, predictive failure [amber is flashing at
constant 1 Hz]
Online, no activity, predictive failure (further investigation required) [green is
fluttering, amber is flashing at constant 1 Hz]
Disk activity, predictive failure (further investigation required) [green is
fluttering, amber is flashing at constant 1 Hz]
Offline, no activity, critical fault condition [amber is on-solid]
Offline, drive selected (blue reserved for identification only) [blue is on steady]
Drive rebuilding [green is flashing at constant 1 Hz]
