On the meaning of the LED's: When a disk LED lights steadily and is green, it indicates that the slot is populated and that the drive is receiving power. When an LED is green and blinking, it indicates that there is activity on the disk. Some applications may use the LED to indicate a fault on the disk drive. In this case, the LED changes color to yellow and remains lit. The disk drive LEDs retain their state even when the system is powered off. On the mapping from physical slot numbers to device names under Solaris: Slot 0 is c0t0d0 Slot 1 is c0t8d0 Slot 2 is c0t9d0 Slot 3 is c0t10d0 Slot 4 is c0t11d0 Slot 5 is c0t12d0 How to remove a disk drive is on page 135. It's very basic though. About disk drives is on page 83 of the PDF (page 119 in xpdf). The salient stuff has been copied above though. Disk LEDs is on page 260 of the PDF.
