For the slots that are not occupied by drives, a carrier blank is provided to maintain proper cooling,

maintain a uniform appearance to the unit, and provide EMI shielding.

The PowerEdge T610 does not support diskless conﬁguration.

Each disk drive carrier has two LED indicators visible from the front of the system. One is a green LED

for disk activity and the other is a bicolor (green/amber) LED for status information. The activity LED is

driven by the disk drive during normal operation. The bicolor LED is controlled by the SEP device on the

backplane. Both LEDs are used to indicate certain conditions under direction of a storage controller.

The PowerEdge T610 system supports up to eight 2.5" or 3.5" hard disk drives.
