1 Unpack the LSI 9260-8i card and prepare it for installation. For

instructions, see the documentation accompanying the card.

2 Remove the system-board assembly. See "Removing a System-Board

Assembly" on page 92.

3 Connect the RAID battery cable to the BBU interposer card. See

Figure 3-13.

4 Attach the BBU interposer card onto the LSI 9260-8i card by securing

the three screws coming with the RAID battery. For the installation
steps of the RAID battery, see ―LSI 9260-8i RAID Battery (Optional)‖
on page 107.

5 Remove the screw securing the filler bracket. Grasp the filler bracket by

its edges, and carefully remove it from the expansion-card connector.
See Figure 3-12.

NOTE: Keep this bracket in case you need to remove the expansion card.
Filler brackets must be installed over empty expansion-cards slots to
maintain FCC certification of the system. The brackets also keep dust and
dirt out of the system and aid in proper cooling and airflow inside the
system.

6 Connect the two SAS/SGPIO cables to the LSI 9260-8i card assembly.

See Figure 3-13.

7 Holding the card by its edges, position the card so that the card-edge

connector aligns with the expansion-card connector. See Figure 3-12.

8 Insert the card-edge connector firmly into the expansion-card

connector until the card is fully seated.

9 Replace the screw securing the LSI 9260-8i card.
10 Place the LSI 9260-8i card assembly into the system-board assembly.

See Figure 3-11.

11 Replace the four screws that secure the LSI 9260-8i card assembly.

Make sure the cable is routed properly as shown in Figure 3-13.

12 Install the system-board assembly. See "Installing a System-Board

Assembly" on page 93.
