period of time specified here. Once in hibernation, the hard disk LED indicator on the
front of the disk tray will flash once every 10 seconds to indicate that the disk is
hibernating. If an access error is detected on a hard disk, the LED indicator on the
front of the disk tray will be lit red.

and power scheduling.
Fan Control: Here you can set the rotation speed for the fan. If you are not sure
about which speed to select, you can simply select Auto. This will automatically
adjust the fan speed in accordance with the temperature of the system.

the local temperature. This function is only available on the following models: AS-
