Removing an Add-in Board

Note
Expansion slot covers must be installed on all vacant slots
to maintain the electromagnetic emissions characteristics of
the system and to ensure proper cooling of the system
components.

2. Disconnect any cables attached to the add-in board you are removing.
3. Remove the screw that holds the board retaining bracket to the chassis.
4. Hold the board at each end, and carefully rock it back and forth until
the edge connectors pull free. Make sure that you do not scrape the
board against other components.

6. If you disconnected cables from the board and you are not reinstalling
this board or one like it, remove the cables from the system.
