See “Installing an Expansion Card” in Chapter 6.

If a SCSI host adapter card is already installed, remove, reconfigure, and reinstall the card at this time. See the documentation that came with the SCSI host adapter card as well as “Removing an Expansion Card” and “Installing an Expan- sion Card” in Chapter 6.

Connect the hard-disk drive access cable to the SCSI host adapter card and to the HDLED connector on the riser board (see Figure 6-3). This cable carries a signal from the SCSI host adapter card to the hard-disk drive access indicator on the computer’s front panel whenever one of the SCSI hard-disk drives is accessed.
