Before beginning these steps, you might need to remove any installed adapter cards. For instructions on removing
adapter cards, see "Removing adapter cards" on page 86.

Left bracket removal
Remove the screws and disconnect any drive

might need to reconnect these cables when you
are finished.) Slide the left bracket back to release
the catches, and then remove the bracket (with any
