Replacing a caching module
To replace a caching module referred to as the M.2 PCIe card on the label on your controller, locate the slot
inside the controller and follow the specific sequence of steps.
Before you begin
Your storage system must meet certain criteria depending on your situation:
• It must have the appropriate operating system for the caching module you are installing.
• It must support the caching capacity.
• All other components in the storage system must be functioning properly; if not, you must contact
technical support.

Step 2.
