A. The HDD1 and HDD2 LEDs are dual-color (green and red). The green LED is normally on when you have a hard
disk installed. If the NSA detects an error on the disk, the disk’s connection comes loose, or the disk fails, the red
LED also comes on. Since the green LED still stays on, the color appears to be orange. If the NSA is no longer
able to detect a hard disk in the disk bay, the green LED turns off and the LED appears as red.

NSA restarts.
