HI Muhammad, first I would like to share the following information with you, http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&objectID=c00596597&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN
Illuminated Fault LED on Hot-Plug Parallel SCSI Hard Drive May Not Indicate Drive Failure and Further Troubleshooting is Required

what we can do here is to update the FW version of the controller, you can do it from here
http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/storage/us/index.html

Of course you can check the SCSI cables and reseat all the drives, If the SCSI backplane was replaced and you still have the same issue I recomend you to send me an ADU report so that I can dig in to it and let you know what the cause of the issue is.

Best Regards,
