SAS RAID Controller Daughter Card

Your system has a dedicated slot (INT STORAGE) for an optional SAS RAID controller daughter card. See Figure 3-8. The optional SAS RAID controller daughter card supports up to six SAS or SATA hard drives and enables you to set up your hard drives in level 0, 1, 5, or 10 RAID configurations. For more information, see the documentation that came with your SAS RAID controller daughter card.

Replacing the SAS RAID Controller Daughter Card Battery

1Disconnect the battery cable from the SAS RAID controller daughter card by releasing the tab on the cable connector on the daughter card and pulling the battery cable free. See Figure 3-25.

2Pull the connector through the routing hole on the expansion-bay bracket and then remove the battery from the expansion-bay bracket by sliding the battery up out of the battery bay. See Figure 3-25.

3Insert the new battery into the battery bay, ensuring that the battery is aligned and fully seated into the slots. See Figure 3-25.
