Chapter 5: Advanced Serverboard Setup

5-11

5-7  Adding PCI Add-On Cards

The 7038A-I can accommodate standard size add-on cards populated in all slots 
on the X10DAi serverboard.

Installing an Add-on Card

1.  Begin by removing the PCI slot shield for the slot you wish to populate.

2.  Fully seat the card into the card 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 shields protect the serverboard and its components from EMI 
and aid in proper ventilation, so make sure there is always a shield covering 
each unused slot.
