2-3 Motherboard Installation
All motherboards have standard mounting holes to fit a blade-type chassis. Make
sure that the locations of all the mounting holes for both motherboard and chassis
match. Although a chassis may have both plastic and metal mounting fasteners,
metal ones are highly recommended because they ground the motherboard to the
chassis. Make sure that the metal standoffs click in or are screwed in tightly. Then
use a screwdriver to secure the motherboard onto the motherboard tray.
Caution
: Some components are very close to the mounting holes. Please take pre-
cautionary measures to prevent damage to these components when installing the
motherboard to the chassis.
Tools Needed
Philips Screwdriver
Pan head screws (7 pieces)
Location of Mounting Holes
There are seven (7) mounting holes on the X9SCE-F motherboard. These holes
correspond to screw holes in a matching motherboard tray that slides into a blade-
type chassis. Please refer to the illustrations on the next page for a typical blade
chassis installation.
Standoffs (7 pieces)
(Only if needed)
Note:
The above items are not provided with this motherboard.
