1. Make sure that the client system is turned off.

2. Open the client system’s outer casing cover, check with

your vendor documentation for instructions if necessary.

3. Re-position the HBA card so that you are facing jumper

switch as shown below. You can use the jumper switch to
configure the HBA for DAS or SAN usage. Set the jumper
switch before installing into the host.

HBA card is enabled for RAID (Direct-Attached Storage

5. Position the connector of the card over the slot and then

insert the connector into the slot. Press gently but firmly
until it is securely seated.
