Step 1.
Touch the static-protective package that contains the RAID adapter to an unpainted metal surface
on any grounded rack component; then, remove the adapter from the package.
Note: For the ThinkSystem RAID 930-4i-2GB 4 Drive Adapter Kit, make sure that the flash power
module is installed before installing the adapter in the compute node (see "Install the flash power
module" on page 50 for instructions).
Step 2.
If interposer card is installed in the compute node, remove the cable from the clip on the side of the
storage cage. This provides more space for connecting the cable to RAID adapter in the next step.
Step 3.
Carefully turn the RAID adapter over in your hand to access the underside; then, connect the cable
from interposer card to RAID adapter. The connector is keyed. Press the cable into the connector
until the connector snaps in place.

Step 4.
Locate the RAID adapter connector on the drive backplane.
Step 5.
Two consecutive sub-steps to orient the RAID adapter with the connector:
a.
Angle RAID adapter as shown and slide flash power module under top side of compute node
front panel.
b.
Carefully orient the connector on the underside of the RAID adapter with the connector on the
top side of the drive backplane; then, insert the plastic post into the RAID adapter supporter.
