Reinstalling the Controller in the Host Computer

Follow these steps to reinstall the RAID controller in the host 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.

Insert the RAID controller in a PCIe slot on the motherboard, as shown in the following figure.

3.

Press down gently, but firmly, to ensure that the RAID controller is correctly seated in the slot.

The bottom edge of the RAID controller must be flush with the slot.

Never apply pressure to the LSIiTBBU03 unit or to the DIMM when
inserting the MegaRAID SAS 8888ELP RAID controller. Instead, press
down only on the top edge of the RAID controller, as shown in the
following figure.
