Note: For brevity, in this documentation the ServeRAID SAS controller is often
referred to simply as the SAS controller.
A ServeRAID SAS controller is installed in a dedicated slot on the SAS riser card.
Important: If you have installed a 8-disk-drive optional expansion device in a
16-drive-capable server, the SAS controller is installed in a PCI riser-card assembly
and is installed and removed the same way as any other PCI adapter. Do not use
the instructions in this topic; use the instructions in “Removing a PCI adapter from a
PCI riser-card assembly” on page 190.
