46 Replacing and Adding Internal Devices
Expansion cards
The server has two expansion slots on the riser card that can be used for a
variety of expansion cards. These slots support 32-bit, 33 MHz PCI cards. Both
slots will hold full-length cards. The expansion slots on the system board are
not used.
Replacing an expansion card
You must install an expansion card in slot 1 before you can install an
expansion card in slot 2.
To replace an expansion card:
1 Set any jumpers and switches on the replacement card, if required in the
card instructions.
2 Turn off the server, then disconnect the power cord and all external
peripheral devices.
3 Open the case. (See “Opening the case” on page 18 and “Preventing static
electricity discharge” on page 17.)
4 Disconnect any cables attached to the card.
5 Loosen the captive thumbscrew that holds the expansion slot cover
bracket in place and remove the expansion slot cover bracket.
