Install the RAID Controller
Insert the controller into a PCI Express slot on the motherboard, as shown in

. Press down gently, but firmly, to seat the controller correctly in the slot.
Secure the controller to the computer chassis with the bracket screw.

This contoller is a PCI Express x8 card and it can operate in x8 or x16 slots.
However, some PCIe slots support only PCIe graphics cards; if a RAID controller is
installed, the card will not function.
NOTE:
Refer to the guide for your motherboard for information about the PCI Express
slot.
