Installing or removing the RAID card

This topic provides instructions on how to install or remove the RAID card. If you are installing or removing
any other types of supported PCI Express cards, such as HBA cards, the procedure is similar.

You can install a supported RAID card into your server to provide advanced hardware RAID functions. For
more information, see “RAID card” on page 21 and “Configuring RAID” on page 47.

Installing the RAID card

Attention: Do not open your server or attempt any repair before reading and understanding “Safety information”
on page iii
and “Guidelines” on page 53.

Attention: Ensure that you back up your data before installing the RAID card because you might need to
reconfigure RAID and reinstall the operating system after installing the RAID card.

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

Notes:

• The RAID card is sensitive to ESD. Ensure that you read and understand “Handling static-sensitive

devices” on page 54 first and carefully perform the operation.

• Depending on the specific type, your RAID card might look different from the illustrations in this topic.

• Use any documentation that comes with the RAID card and follow those instructions in addition to

the instructions in this topic.
