I recently purchased a Z170 Pro4S motherboard and I'm experiencing a problem with the HDD LED header.  No matter what I try, the LED does not light up.  I've confirmed that the LED on the case is functional, and tried various settings in the UEFI, but nothing works.  I am on UEFI version 2.10 for this motherboard.
I did find a reference to this problem on a Japanese web site, which suggests updating the Intel ME firmware.  However, I'm not prepared to risk updating my board based on a suggestion from a non-ASRock source.
 
Here is a link to the site: http://www.mustardseed.co.jp/news/support_asrock_hddled.html

Has anyone else experienced this problem on any of the Z170 chipset boards?
 
Thanks,

Vannex
