Installing PCI Add-in Board(s)

CAUTIONS
Before installing any add-in boards, you may want to install an operating system.
Do not overload the server board by installing add-in boards that draw excessive current.
Add-in boards can be extremely sensitive to ESD and always require careful handling. After removing
the board from its protective wrapper, place it component side up on a grounded, static-free surface.
Do not slide the board over any surface.
When removing a full-length add-in card, you must pull back on the latch on the plastic card guide at
the front of the chassis to release the card from the card guide.
