3ware Escalade ATA RAID Controller Installation Guide

•Handle the ATA RAID Controller by its edges or by the black rail and metal bracket at its two ends.

•Don’t touch any pin, contact, lead or component on theATA RAID Controller.

Mechanical Concerns

Be careful when installing the EscaladeATA RAID Controller into your system. Excessive force can damage the board, the cables, your drives or your system.

•Be sure the board is aligned with its slot on the motherboard before installing. Do not flex the board excessively.

•Interface cable connectors must be mated carefully without bending any pins. The connectors provided are keyed to prevent you from inserting them upside-down.

•Interface cables are fragile and must not be crimped or pinched. Ensure that they do not impede the flow of cooling air from fans or heat sinks in the system case.
