Installing a PCI card

A PCI card can be installed in either PCI slot 1 or 2 on the system board. The PCI card is supported on hot-swap server models only. The PCI card enables integrated RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10 support capability on hot-swap hard disk drives. For configuration information, see the documentation that comes with the adapter.

Important: To ensure that your PCI card functions properly on UEFI-based servers, make sure that the adapter firmware level is updated and the supporting drivers are installed.

Attention: Some cluster solutions require specific code levels or coordinated code updates. If the device is part of a cluster solution, verify that the latest level of code is supported for the cluster solution before you update the code.

To install the PCI card, complete the following steps:

1.Read the safety information that begins on page vii and “Installation guidelines” on page 29.

2.Turn off the server and peripheral devices, and disconnect the power cords and all external cables.

Attention: To avoid breaking the retaining clips or damaging the PCI card connector, open and close the clips gently.

3.Unlock and remove the side cover (see “Removing the side cover” on page 32).

4.Remove the hard disk drive fan assembly:

a.Rotate the hard disk drive fan assembly cable out of the system board.

b.Remove all hard disk drives.

c.Press and hold the drive cage release tab on the side of the drive cage; then, rotate the drive cage out of the chassis until the retaining tab on top of the cage locks into place.

d.Pull out on the hard disk drive fan assembly release tabs (at the blue dots); then, rotate the hard disk drive fan assembly away from the drive cage slightly.

5.Disconnect the signal and power cables and the existing SAS/SATA controller (if one is installed); then, remove the controller from the server.

6.Touch the static-protective package that contains the PCI card to any unpainted metal surface on the server. Then, remove the PCI card from the package.

7.Align the PCI card so that the keys align correctly with the connector on the system board.

Attention: Incomplete insertion might cause damage to the system board or the PCI card.

Note: The drive cage should be in the open position. This illustration shows it in the closed position.

8.Press the PCI card firmly into the connector on the system board.
