RAID card
This topic provides information to help you locate the connectors on a RAID card if you have one installed
on the riser card assembly 2.

server. For more information, refer to “Installing or removing the RAID card” on page 85

Note: The option kit for the RAID card is designed for different types of servers and might contain additional
