Important
When installing a PCI card, make sure the connector of the card fits the
connector of the riser card.
Note
• Check the card type (low-profile or full-height) which respective riser card
supports and the type of PCI card to be installed.
• To install an FBU, see Chapter 2 (1.11 Flash Backup Unit for RAID Controller).
Note
Keep the removed blank cover for future use.
Important
Do not touch the terminal part of riser card or PCI card and the signal pins
of electric parts installed on the board. Installing boards with dirt or oil can
cause malfunction.
Note
• Make sure that the edge of a PCI card bracket is seated into the fixed slot.
• Depending on type of PCI cards, the terminal part of the PCI card may be too
large to fit in the connector.
• If you have trouble installing the card, remove the card once and try again. If you
apply excessive pressure on the card, a PCI card or riser card might break.
