I'd like to have multiple hard drive activity lights, one for each drive, instead of just a single light.............I imagine that this is a hardware more than a software issue, but are there any mods that can accomplish this............it would be nice to be able to add lights as needed in the future
CPU....................... Intel E7200 (modest overclock to 3.00GHz, at FSB = 316, with stock fan)
MOBO................... Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3L (4 SATA II channels, no support for RAID)
RAM.......................2 x 1GB G. SKILL DDR2-1066 (PC2 8500)
HARD DRIVES........[C:] Crucial C300 64GB SATA III.......[D:] Seagate 160 GB SATA (150) with 8 MB cache
PSU....................... 550W PSU
VIDEO CARD..........XFX GeForce 9600 GSO...........running dual LCD monitors, 27 inch and 24 inch
OS......................... Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit

It can be done easily with IDE drives, but with SATA you'd probably need the right kind of SATA expansion card or RAID controller.

Intel i7 2600K @ 4.8 - Gigabyte Z68AP-D3 - 2x4gb Mushkin PC16000 - XFX HD 7970 Black OC Edition - Mushkin Joule 1000W - Seagate 7200.11 1TB - Corsair H100 - Acer 23.5" 3x1 Eyefinity
