"Hot-Swappable" PCIe Cards

New technology allows you to remove your 3
maintenance or replacement – without shutting the system down. Each
of the four PCIe slots is controlled by a Hot Button. The "inside" buttons
control the "top" slots and the "outside" buttons control the "bottom"
slots.
Simply press the button for the slot you want to "power-down." An LED
corresponding to that slot will blink for 5 Seconds, when the LED turns
off there is no more power supplied to the slot. All other PCIe cards
remain fully functional.

Procedure for hot-un-plugging a PCI-Express plug in card:

1. Once system has booted and is stable, an applet on
the right hand side of the start menu bar should
appear depicting a card with a green arrow above it.
Double click on the applet.
2. A dialog should appear with the title "Safely Remove
Hardware" in the dialog will be a list of devices that may be
removed from the system. Within this list will be the cards
currently plugged into the chassis.
