guidelines in "Handling static-sensitive devices" on page 33
2. Turn off the computer and all attached devices (see "Turning off the computer"
on page 19); then, disconnect all external cables and power cords.
3. Remove the side cover (see "Removing the side cover" on page 38).
4. Determine the slot in which you want to install the adapter. Review the
instructions that come with the adapter for any requirements, restrictions, or
cabling instructions. It might be easier to route any cables before you install
the adapter.
5. For full-length adapters, rotate the rear adapter-retention bracket to the open
(unlocked) position (you might have to first remove any adapters that might be
in the way). Press down on the bottom tab of the front adapter-retention
bracket to release it (the tab is inside the fan compartment that is next to the
front adapter-retention bracket). If you are installing a smaller adapter, rotate
only the rear adapter-retention bracket.
