Installing an integrated storage controller card

Prerequisites

CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that are shipped with your product.

Steps

  1. Align one end of the card with the card holder on the system board.
  2. Lower the other end of the card into the storage-controller card holder on the system board.
  3. Press the touch-points on the card and push the card down until it is fully seated.
    When the card is fully seated, the release levers snap over the edge of the card.
  4. Close the system.
  5. If applicable, place the system upright on a flat, stable surface and rotate the system feet outward.
  6. If removed, reinstall the hard drives, server modules, and power supply units.
  7. Reconnect the enclosure to its electrical outlet and turn the enclosure on, including any attached peripherals.
  8. Turn on the server modules using the operating system commands or the CMC.
  9. If applicable, install the front bezel.
