Installing the RAID 510i upgrade key

Attention: Do not open your server or attempt any repair before reading and understanding “Safety information”
on page iii
and “Guidelines” on page 63.

Before you begin, print all the related instructions or ensure that you can view the PDF version on another
computer for reference.

Note: Use any documentation that comes with the RAID 510i upgrade key and follow those instructions in
addition to the instructions in this topic.

To install the RAID 510i upgrade key, do the following:

Attention: Installing the RAID 510i upgrade key might impact your RAID configurations. Back up your data
before you begin to avoid any data loss due to a RAID configuration change.

1. Remove all media from the drives and turn off all attached devices and the server. Then, disconnect all

power cords from electrical outlets and disconnect all cables that are connected to the server.

2. If the server is installed in a rack cabinet, remove the server from the rack cabinet and place it on a flat,

clean, and static-protective surface. See the Rack Installation Instructions that comes with the server. If
the server is in tower form factor, lay the server on its side for easier operation.

3. Remove the server cover. See “Removing the server cover” on page 66.

4. Touch the static-protective package that contains the RAID 510i upgrade key to any unpainted surface

on the outside of the server. Then, take the RAID 510i upgrade key out of the package.

5. Locate the Lenovo ThinkServer RAID 510i AnyRAID Adapter. See “Server components” on page 25.

6. Locate the connector for the RAID 510i upgrade key on the Lenovo ThinkServer RAID 510i AnyRAID

Adapter. Then, insert the RAID 510i upgrade key into the connector. Ensure that the RAID 510i upgrade
key is securely seated on the AnyRAID adapter.

Note: If necessary, remove the Lenovo ThinkServer RAID 510i AnyRAID Adapter first for easier
operation. Then, reinstall the Lenovo ThinkServer RAID 510i AnyRAID Adapter. See “Replacing the
AnyRAID adapter or the pass-through board” on page 143
