Where are the diagnostic LEDs located on a PowerEdge MX750c compute sled?

Question

Options

• AFront of the sled after removing the bottom two drives
• BMiddle of the system board with the top of the cover removed
• CLocated on the back of the sled
• DFront of the sled after removing the top two drives

Explanation

Option A is correct because on the PowerEdge MX750c, the diagnostic LEDs are physically positioned on the front panel behind the bottom two drive bays - you must remove those drives to expose and view them. Option B is wrong because the system board diagnostics require removing the top cover, but the diagnostic LEDs themselves are not in the middle of the board; that description conflates the system board internals with the LED panel location. Option C is incorrect because the rear of a compute sled is the connector interface that seats into the chassis midplane, not where diagnostic LEDs are placed. Option D is a close distractor but wrong - it's the bottom two drives you remove, not the top two.

Memory tip: Think "bottom to diagnose" - the LEDs are hidden under the bottom drives, just like how you'd lift the floor panel to check a car's undercarriage diagnostics.
