About Cautions
CAUTION: A CAUTION indicates a potential for property damage, personal injury, or death.
SAS/RAID Controller Installation
CAUTION: Any installation that requires removal of the system cover is intended solely to be performed
by trained service technicians. See your Product Information Guide for complete information about safety
precautions, working inside the computer, and protecting against electrostatic discharge.
For complete instructions on installing the PCI fan module and the SAS/RAID controller expansion card
contained in this kit, see the “Installing System Components” section of the Hardware Owner’s Manual
included on the CDs that shipped with your system. You can also view your system’s Hardware Owner’s
Manual on the Dell Support website at support.dell.com.
NOTICE: The PCI fan assembly included in this kit must be installed with the SAS/RAID controller to ensure proper
system cooling. Operating your system with the controller installed but without the fan assembly could result in
your system overheating and shutting down unexpectedly.
NOTE: Depending on the system you are upgrading, you may need to remove the existing PCI wall panel inside
the system before installing the PCI fan assembly contained in this kit. Although not specifically described in
the Hardware Owner’s Manual, the procedure is the same as removing an existing PCI fan assembly.
