Therefore, you have the advantage of continuing to operate the system while a hard disk drive is removed or installed. These drives are known as hot-swap drives. Each hot-swap drive has two indicator lights on the front of the server. If the amber hard-disk status light for a drive is lit continuously, that individual drive is faulty and needs to be replaced. When the hard-disk status light indicates a drive fault, you can replace a hot-swap drive without turning off the server. 50 Hardware Maintenance Manual: Netfinity 7100 - Type 8666

Installing internal drives
If you add different types of drives, the system can read multiple types of media
and store more data. Several types of drives are available, such as:
v
Diskette
v
Hard disk
v
CD-ROM
v
Tape
Internal drives are installed in bays. Your server comes with one 3.5-inch, 1.44MB
diskette drive and one CD-ROM drive.
Hot-swap hard disk
Media bays 1 and 2

Your server contains hardware that enables you to replace a failed hard disk drive
without turning off the server. Therefore, you have the advantage of continuing to
operate the system while a hard disk drive is removed or installed. These drives
are known as
hot-swap
drives.
Each hot-swap drive has two indicator lights on the front of the server. If the
amber hard-disk status light for a drive is lit continuously, that individual drive is
faulty and needs to be replaced. When the hard-disk status light indicates a drive
fault, you can replace a hot-swap drive without turning off the server.
