Removing a PCI riser-card assembly
The server comes with two riser-card assemblies that each contain two PCI
Express x8 connectors. You can replace a PCI Express riser-card assembly with a
riser-card assembly that contains one PCI Express Gen 2 x16 connector or that
contains two PCI-X 64-bit 133 MHz connectors. See http://www.ibm.com/servers/
eserver/serverproven/compat/us/ for a list of riser-card assemblies that you can use
with the server.
To remove the riser-card assembly, complete the following steps:
1. Read the safety information that begins on page vii and “Installation guidelines”
on page 36.
2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices, and disconnect the power cord and
all external cables.
3. Remove the cover (see “Removing the cover” on page 43).
4. Grasp the assembly at the front tab and rear edge and lift it to remove it from
the server. Place the riser-card assembly on a flat, static-protective surface.
