Removing a SAS Controller Card

1Disconnect the SAS cable, LED cable, and RAID battery cable (if applicable) from the SAS controller card.

2Grasp the card by its top corners and ease it out of its connector. See "Removing an Expansion Card" on page 107.

3If you are removing the card permanently, install a filler bracket in the empty card slot.

NOTE: Filler brackets must be installed over empty expansion card slots to maintain Federal Communications Commission (FCC) certification of the system. The brackets also keep dust and dirt out of the system and aid in proper cooling and airflow inside the system.

4If applicable, remove the RAID battery from the battery holder. See "Installing and Removing a RAID Battery" on page 116.
