Abstract

A tray for modules may be configured to be in power communication with a motherboard. The tray may include a tray status indicator to be powered by a power storage circuit within the tray when the tray is disconnected from the motherboard. The tray may include slots to receive removable modules that are to be in power communication with the tray. The tray may include module status indicators to be powered by the power storage circuit when the tray is disconnected from the motherboard. The tray may include an indicator that a given one of the removable modules has a fault. The indication is to be persistent after disconnection of the tray from the motherboard. The tray may include a display controller circuit to selectively apply display schemes for the tray status indicator and the module status indicators depending upon whether the tray is connected to power of the motherboard.
