    Until I post the FAQ, here is the info for reference:
    LED blink behavior for 2 disk systems is three quick blinks of all disk LEDs and the backup LED, followed by an 1s delay, followed by a number of slow blinks.  The number of slow blinks will be the error code.

    Current error codes:
    1  - Vendor mismatch
    2  - No disks detected
    3  - Bad contents on root partition of disks
    4  - Flash error
    5  - Unsupported RAID configuration
