No. OTOH, the poor sysadmins version of the "disk identification light" is: sudo dd if=/dev/sdFAIL of=/dev/null ...plus a pair of eyes. FWIW.
Yeah, if the drive is failed or if I know what drive to access I have no problem identifying it (I can access the working array and see what drive slots blink and which don't, or try to access the failed drive). But I have right now no way to identify the drive on "ata14.00". I can from dmesg deduce that it's most likely /dev/sdj (by observing the order of things being identified), but I don't know for sure it seems.
