Installing and Removing a PCI Board
The server has two "riser cards" on the motherboard that enable installation of PCI
boards. Three PCI boards can be installed on each riser card. (Up to six PCI boards can
be installed in total.)
Insert PCI boards for network extension and file device function extension into PCI
board slots in each riser card.
■
The PCI board is extremely sensitive to static electricity.
Make sure to touch the metal frame of the server to dis-
charge static electricity from your body before handling the
PCI board. Do not touch the PCI board terminals or on-
board parts by a bare hand or place the PCI board directly
on the desk. For static notes, see
page
■
Some restrictions are imposed on the combination of PCI
boards which can be installed in the server. Contact your
sales agent for details.
■
A riser card is designed for installing only low-profile PCI
boards or full-height PCI boards. Before installing a PCI
board, make sure of the card specification.
