To install or replace a PCIe card, follow these steps:
Remove a mass storage controller PCIe card:
Step 1
Power off the server as described in the
a.
page
Disconnect all power cords from the power supplies.
b.
Slide the server out the front of the rack far enough so that you can remove the top cover. You might
c.
have to detach cables from the rear panel to provide clearance.
Caution
Remove the top cover as described in the
d.

Remove the screw that secures the PCIe card rear plate to the assembly rear opening.
h.
i. Pull the PCIe card connector out of the riser card socket and set the card aside.
Step 2 Install a mass storage controller PCIe card:
a. If you are installing a PCIe card to an empty slot on the riser card assembly, remove any blank panel
