Before you can install the SAS/SATA control module, you need to remove the bracket for

the 60mm PCI fans. The PCIe flex circuit cable that connects the SAS/SATA control

module to the bridge board for baseboard connectivity goes under this bracket. There

is also a protective sheet metal cover that sits over the SAS/SATA control module and

this has to come off also before the module can be installed.
1. Remove the front chassis cover. For instructions, see “Removing the Front Cover” in

Section3.2.

2. Unscrew the large screw at the back of the sheet metal bracket that holds the 60mm

PCI fan set. (Figure 30, “A”)

Slide the whole fan assembly up and backwards to disengage the front guide pins

from the chassis base. (“B”)

Figure 30. Removing the Fan Assembly Bracket from the Chassis

3. Rest the fan assembly on the front of the server. (You do not need to remove

the fans or unplug the power connector.)

4. Unscrew the protective sheet metal cover and install the SAS/SATA control

module using slot and screw. The opening in the top should be centered over

the LSI Logic LSISAS1078* controller on the module (Figure 29, “B”).

5. Attach one end of the flex circuit cable to the connector on the SAS/SATA

control module. Install the black plastic retention clip (included in the

accessory bag) over the flex cable connector (Figure 29, “A”). This clip will

secure the cable to the board and prevent the cable from coming loose during

shipment.

6. Line the SAS/SATA control module bracket up close to the SAS/SATA backplane

board connector and insert the edge connector into the backplane board.

7. Run the flex circuit cable across chassis floor (where the fan bracket was) and

connect it to the bridge board that connects the front panel board with the

T5520UR server board. See Figure 24 and Table 4 for the cable routing.

8. Replace the fan assembly bracket by inserting the guide pins into the mounting

holes on the chassis and then tightening the screw at the rear of the bracket

to secure the assembly.
