9. Connect required cables to the adapter. Route cables so that they do not block
the flow of air from the fans. If you are installing an optional SCSI adapter, see
“Cabling an optional SCSI adapter” on page 58 for additional information.
10. If you have another adapter to install, repeat steps 4 through 9.
11. If you have installed a full-length adapter, rotate the front adapter-support
bracket to the closed (locked) position.
Note: If any adapter in your computer is large or has heavy cables attached to
it, you can secure the adapter with a screw: insert one backup
expansion-slot screw (stored on the frame-support bracket) through the
top of each adapter bracket into the screw hole and secure the adapter
before proceeding to the next step. If you use a screw to secure an
adapter, you will need to secure all adapters with screws. You cannot
use both the screws and the retention brackets to secure an adapter.
You must use one or the other.
12. Reinstall the rear adapter-retention bracket; then, rotate the bracket to the
closed (locked) position.
Note: The rear retention bracket rests against the computer side cover. You
might find it easier to lay the computer on its side to replace the side
cover.
13. If you have other options to install, do so now; otherwise, continue with step
14.
14. Replace the support bracket (see “Removing and installing the support
bracket” on page 54).
15. Replace the side cover (see “Replacing the side cover” on page 68).
16. Reconnect the external cables and power cords; then, turn on the attached
devices and the computer.
