The barebone server comes with a riser card bracket. You need to remove

the bracket if you want to install PCI Express x16 expansion cards.
To install the PCI Express x16 expansion cards:
1. Firmly hold the riser card bracket,

then pull it up to detach it from

the PCI Express x16 slot on the

motherboard.

2. Place the riser card bracket on

a flat and stable surface, then

remove the screw from the slot

bay.

3. Use a Phillips (cross) screw

driver to remove the screw that

secures the slot metal cover.

4. Remove the slot metal cover,

then set it aside.
