Installing the HBA

There are two PCI expansion slots on the system board. One supports a full length/full height PCIe card
and this already has a Smart Array RAID controller card installed. The other supports a low profile PCIe
slot. This is the slot into which you must install the HBA for Tape Attach. If the HBA that you purchase has
a full-height bracket, you must replace it with a half-height bracket (supplied with the recommended HBA).
