Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology
errors
The NVMe PCIe SSD solution is always monitored for errors by its internal software. If an error occurs, it is detected and recorded in an
internal log. Based on the criticality of the error, the software may inform the host server that further action is needed. It signies that the
error condition occurred a specic number of times and that the device health needs attention.
NVMe PCIe SSD Carrier LED indicators
The LEDs on the NVMe PCIe SSD 2.5 inch SFF carrier indicate the state of each physical device. Each NVMe PCIe SSD carrier in your
enclosure has an activity LED (green) and a status LED (bicolor, green/amber). The activity LED ashes whenever the device is accessed.
