Replace the PCI mounting bracket (system dependent). If required for your system, replace the shorter PCI
mounting bracket that ships on the Nytro WarpDrive card with the full-height bracket supplied. Save the two
screws from the short bracket and use the screws to attach the full-height bracket.

Insert the Nytro WarpDrive card in an available PCIe slot. Locate an empty PCIe slot. Remove the blank
bracket panel on the server chassis that aligns with the empty PCIe slot. Save the bracket screw, if applicable.
Align the card to the PCIe slot. Press down gently, but firmly, to properly seat the card in the slot. The following
figure shows how to insert the card in a PCIe slot.

For highest performance, make sure that the PCIe slot is PCIe 2.0 and make sure that it has an active width of
dedicated eight lanes. The Nytro WarpDrive card functions with an active width of four lanes or two lanes, but
with reduced performance.

Secure the bracket to the system's chassis. Install the bracket screw, if applicable, or engage the system
retention mechanism to secure the card to the system's chassis.
