It may be necessary to update the BIOS when carrying out a system expansion
or hardware upgrade. Additional information is contained in the "BIOS Setup"
manual or possibly in the technical manual for the mainboard.
When installing components that become very hot, make sure that the
maximum permissible temperature is not exceeded.
The device must be switched off when installing/removing the system
expansions and may not be in energy-saving mode.
Remove the power plug before opening the device.
This chapter describes all the activities required to modify your device hardware
(e.g. installing boards or drives).

Refer to the manual for the mainboard before making any extensions to the mainboard.
