WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, consult the safety
information and user documentation provided with the server before attempting the installation.
Some servers contain high energy circuits, high current circuits, moving parts (such as fan blades),
or any combination of these hazards, that may be exposed if covers and access panels are
removed while the product is connected to a power source. These products are intended to be
serviced only by qualified personnel who have been trained to deal with these hazards. Do not
remove enclosures or attempt to bypass any interlocks designed to guard against these
hazardous conditions.
1.
Remove or open the access panel.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the
internal system components to cool before touching them.
2.
Select an available x8 or larger PCIe expansion slot.
A x8 physical size slot is required, even though the slot width may be electrically x4 or x1.
3.
Remove the slot cover. Save the retaining screw, if one is present.
4.
Install the cache module, as needed.
For some controllers, if the cache module is absent, the controller does not function.
5.
Slide the controller board along the slot alignment guide, if one is present, and then press the board
firmly into the expansion slot so that the contacts on the board edge are seated properly in the slot.
6.
Secure the controller board in place with the retaining screw. If the slot alignment guide has a latch
(near the rear of the board), close the latch.
7.
Close or install the access panel, and then secure it with thumbscrews, if any are present.
CAUTION:
Do not operate the server for long periods with the access panel open or removed.
Operating the server in this manner results in improper airflow and improper cooling that can
lead to thermal damage.
