Installing the PERC H200 and 6Gbps SAS HBA
Cards

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 Unpack the PERC H200 card or 6Gbps SAS HBA and check for damage.

NOTE:

Contact Dell if the controller is damaged.

2 Turn off the system and attached peripherals, and disconnect the system

from the electrical outlet. See your system’s Hardware Owner’s Manual
or the User’s Guide for more information on power supplies.

3 Disconnect the system from the network and remove the cover of the

system. See your system’s Hardware Owner’s Manual or the User’s Guide
for more information on opening the system.

4 Select an appropriate PCI-E slot. If replacing a PERC H200 Adapter or

6Gbps SAS HBA, remove the blank filler bracket on the back of the
system aligned with the PCI-E slot you have selected.

NOTE:

For more information about your system’s PCI-E slots, see your
