Hard disk drive activity LED: Each hard disk drive has an activity LED. When this
LED is flashing, it indicates that the drive is in use.
Hard disk drive status LED: Each hard disk drive has a status LED. When this
LED is lit, it indicates that the drive has failed. When this LED is flashing slowly
(one flash per second), it indicates that the drive is being rebuilt as part of a RAID
configuration. When the LED is flashing rapidly (three flashes per second), it
indicates that the controller is identifying the drive.
Video connector: Connect a monitor to this connector. The video connectors on
the front and rear of the server can be used simultaneously.
