Installing a PCI expansion card
A PCI expansion card (sometimes called an add-in card) is a card used in the server to add
functionality to the system. Use the following procedure to replace, add, or reseat an
expansion card.
To replace, add, or reseat a PCI expansion card:
1 Follow the instructions in “Preventing static electricity discharge” on page 29.
2 Follow the instructions in “Opening the server case” on page 30.
3 If you are replacing a card, disconnect any cables that are attached to the old card.
4 Remove the thumbscrew that secures the expansion card retention cover to the server
case.
Caution Do not touch the contacts on the bottom part of the PCI
card. Touching the contacts can cause electrostatic
damage to the card.
