b.
If you are removing a PCI card or a PCI Express x1 card, hold the card at each end and
carefully rock it back and forth until the connectors pull free from the socket. Lift the card
straight up then away from the inside of the chassis to remove it. Be sure not to scrape the
card against other components.
NOTE:
PCI Express x1 card shown below.
6.
Store the removed card in anti-static packaging.
7.
If you are not installing a new expansion card, install an expansion slot cover to close the open
slot.
CAUTION:
After removing an expansion card, you must replace it with a new card or
expansion slot cover for proper cooling of internal components during operation.
To install an expansion card, reverse the removal procedures.
Connect external cables to the installed card, if needed. Connect internal cables to the system board, if
needed.
Cable management
Always follow good cable management practices when working inside the computer.
●
Keep cables away from major heat sources like the heat sink.
●
Do not jam cables on top of expansion cards or memory modules. Printed circuit cards like these
are not designed to take excessive pressure on them.
●
Some flat ribbon cables come prefolded. Never change the folds on these cables.
●
Never bend a SATA data cable tighter than a 30 mm (1.18 in) radius.
●
Never crease a SATA data cable.
●
Do not rely on components like the drive cage, power supply, or computer cover to push cables
down into the chassis. Always position the cables to lay properly by themselves.
