2.5.5.4 Reinstalling the Controller in the Host Computer
Follow these steps to install the RAID controller in the computer.
1. With the power to the chassis still turned off, and the power cords unplugged, make sure that the chassis is
grounded and has no AC power.
2. Insert the RAID controller in a PCIe slot on the motherboard, as shown in the following figure.
NOTE This controller is a PCIe x8 card, and it can operate in x8 or x16 slots.
However, some PCIe slots support only PCIe graphics cards; a
controller installed in one of these slots will not function. Refer to the
guide for your motherboard for information about the PCIe slot.
3. Press down gently, but firmly, to seat the card correctly in the slot.
