• To complete the removal procedure, go to “Completing the parts replacement” on page 183. Because the

hardware RAID 5 and 50 levels are not available without the RAID 510i key, you might need to reconfigure
RAID for your server. For information about how to configure the hardware RAID, refer to the MegaRAID
SAS Software User Guide on the documentation DVD that comes with your server.

Installing the SD module

Attention: Do not open your server or attempt any repair before reading and understanding “Safety information”
on page iii
and “Guidelines” on page 67.

Before you begin, print all the related instructions or ensure that you can view the PDF version on another
computer for reference.

Notes:

• Use any documentation that comes with the SD module and follow those instructions in addition to

the instructions in this topic.

• Depending on the model, your server might look slightly different from the illustration in this topic.

To install the SD module, do the following:

1. Remove all media from the drives and turn off all attached devices and the server. Then, disconnect all

power cords from electrical outlets and disconnect all cables that are connected to the server.

2. Prepare your server. See “Removing or extending the server from the rack cabinet” on page 69.

3. Remove the server cover. See “Removing the server cover” on page 69.

4. Remove the riser card assembly 2. See “Replacing the riser card” on page 85.

5. Locate the SD module connector on the system board. See “System board components” on page

43. Remove any parts and disconnect any cables that might impede your access to the SD module
connector.

6. Touch the static-protective package that contains the SD module to any unpainted surface on the

outside of the server. Then, take the SD module out of the package.

Note: Carefully handle the SD module by its edges.
