Step 1 Unpack
Unpack and install the hardware in a static-free environment. The MegaRAID controller card is
packed inside an anti-static bag between two sponge sheets. Remove the controller card and
inspect it for damage. If the card appears damaged, or if any of items listed below are missing,
contact LSI Logic Technical Support at 678-728-1250. The MegaRAID Controller is also shipped
with the following items that are on CD:
• the MegaRAID Configuration Software Guide
• the MegaRAID Operating System Drivers Guide
• the MegaRAID Enterprise 1600 Hardware Guide
• the software license agreement
• the MegaRAID Configuration Utilities for DOS
• the warranty registration card
Step 2 Power Down
Turn off the computer and remove the cover. Make sure the computer is turned off and
disconnected from any networks before installing the controller card.
Step 3 Configure Motherboard
Make sure the motherboard is configured correctly for MegaRAID. MegaRAID is essentially a
SCSI Controller. Each MegaRAID card you install will require an available PCI IRQ; make sure
an IRQ is available for each controller you install.
