Be careful not to lose the light conductors for the SATA, Ethernet and power
LEDs. They are only loosely attached.

Break out the covers of the front panel slots.

Make sure that the adapter matches the standard dimensions for SA-Adapters. 

Remove the two front panel screws of the SA-Adapter.

See also installation hints in the adapter’s user manual or the list of 
compatible accessories in the BL50S data sheet on MEN’s 

website
