Quick Hardware Installation Guide
Install Expansion Board (Optional)
The StorTrends 2104 NAS server supports two (2) PCI expansion cards. There is one (1) available
64bit/133MHz PCI-X slot and one (1) available 64bit/33MHz PCI slot. Both slots support full-
height, half-length cards.
•
To access the expansion card
section of the chassis, you must first
remove the chassis lid. To remove
the chassis lid, loosen the spring-
loaded retaining thumbscrew that
secures the lid of the chassis. The
retaining thumbscrew is located on
the back of the chassis. Slide the lid
towards the rear of the chassis and
lift it up and off.
•
Locate the PCI riser board. Remove the expansion board plastic retaining clip.
•
Remove the metal expansion bay cover from the slot you want to use. The 64bit/33MHz PCI
slot is on the top and the 64bit/133MHz PCI-X slot is on the bottom.
•
Plug your expansion board into the correct PCI slot. Make sure that the expansion board is
fully seated and that the riser board is also fully seated into the motherboard.
•
Slide the expansion board plastic retaining clip back into its original position, securing the
expansion board into the slot. For more instructions on installing your expansion board, see
the expansion board's installation instructions.
•
Replace the chassis lid by first aligning the chassis lid tabs with the notches on the chassis.
Place the chassis lid down and slide the lid towards the front until it snaps into place. Tighten
the retaining thumbscrew.
