Drive Carrier LED Indicators

The LED on the physical disk carrier indicates the state of each physical disk.
Each drive carrier in your enclosure has two LEDs: an activity LED (green)
and a bicolor (green/amber) status LED as shown in Figure 7-1. The activity
LED flashes whenever the drive is accessed.
