What does a solid red light on # 2 mean on a Drivestation Duo?
« on: September 21, 2011, 07:06:40 PM »

I had a solid red light for drive 2.  I turned it off and back on and the light turned green.  

 

It  turned red again so I shut it off and turned it back on and the light ius green again.

 

Does this mean the drive is failing or something else?

With RAID 1 you should have a green light for each disk. I would try and copy the data off and delete the array and recreate it. If it keeps happening then that disk might be bad.
