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 came with the
product.

1 Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect

the system from the electrical outlet.

2 If present, disconnect the Ethernet cable from the iDRAC6 Enterprise

card connector on the system back panel. See Figure 1-4.

3 Open the system. See "Opening the System" on page 76.
4 If installed, remove the expansion card from the expansion-card slot.

See "Removing an Expansion Card" on page 88.

5 Remove the VFlash media card (if installed) from the iDRAC6 Enterprise

card. See "Removing a VFlash Media Card" on page 112.

6 Pull back slightly on the two tabs at the front edge of the card and gently

lift the front edge of the card off of the retention standoffs.
As the card releases from the standoffs, the connector under the card

disengages from the system board connector.

is clear of the back panel.

Card" on page 89.
