About this task
Attention: For safety and airflow purposes, if you remove parts from the system, you must ensure
that:
• PCIe tailstock fillers are present.
• System airflow baffle is present.
Notes:
• If you are installing or replacing a Broadcom 93xx adapter (FC EK41, FC EK43, or FC EK47), it must be
installed in slot 5 or 10. If you are installing an FC EK47 Broadcom adapter, you must install the
CacheVault Power Module in slot 2 (if you use slot 5 to install the adapter ) or slot 7 (if you use slot 10 to
install the adapter).
• If a CacheVault power module is attached to the adapter, install or replace the CacheVault power
module and cable. For details, see the Broadcom web site (https://www.broadcom.com/products/
