External LED Connectors Jumper JP5 This six pin header provides connection for three status LEDs, the odd-numbered pin is the +5V source (Pin 1, 3 and 5). An external series resistor is not required for connecting LEDs.
  DATA WILL BE LOST if the system either loses power or is reset while the Write Pending LED is ON (indicating the cache contains data not yet written to disk). To prevent loss, install the optional cache battery backup module.
