Chapter 5: Advanced Motherboard Setup

5-13

5-6 Adding PCI Expansion Cards

The 2027TR-H70RF/H70FRF/H70QRF includes four preinstalled riser cards

designed specifi cally for use in the SC217HQ-R1620B 2U rackmount chassis.

These riser cards support low-profi le PCI Express x16 cards to fi t inside the chassis.

Installing an Expansion Card

1. After powering down the system, remove the PCI slot shield.

2. Fully seat the card into the slot, pushing down with your thumbs evenly on

both sides of the card.

3. Finish by using a screw to secure the top of the card shield to the chassis.

The PCI slot shield protects the motherboard and its components from EMI

and aid in proper ventilation, so make sure it is always in place.
