4. Remove the server from the rack and place it on a flat, non-conductive surface.

button
5. Press the cover-release button.
6. Slide the cover back approximately 1.27 cm (0.5 inches); then, lift it off the
server.
Attention: For proper cooling and airflow, replace the cover before turning on the
server. Operating the server for extended periods of time (more than 30 minutes)
with the cover removed open might damage server components.
Installing an adapter
The following notes describe the types of adapters that the server supports and
other information that you must consider when installing an adapter:
v
Locate the documentation that comes with the adapter and follow those
instructions in addition to the instructions in this section. If you have to change
switch settings or jumper settings on the adapter, follow the instructions that
come with the adapter.
v The adapter slots are on the riser-card assembly. You must first remove the
riser-card assembly to access the adapter slots.
v
Depending on the riser-card assembly in the server, the server contains either
two peripheral component interconnect-extended (PCI-X) adapter slots or one
PCI-X slot and one PCI Express slot. See the ServerProven
®
list at
http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/serverproven/compat/us/ for a list of
riser-card assemblies and adapters that you can use with the server.
v
You can install one full-height three-quarter-length adapter in expansion slot 1
and one low-profile half-length adapter in expansion slot 2.
v The server supports the following adapters:
– PCI-X: 3.3 V or universal adapters
– PCI Express: PCI Express x8 1.0a adapters
Note: If you use a legacy PCI adapter (32 bit/33 MHz) or a slower-speed PCI-X
adapter in a hot-swap SAS/SATA system, the hard-disk drive performance will be
degraded.
v
The server uses a rotational interrupt technique to configure PCI-X adapters so
that you can install PCI-X adapters that do not support sharing of PCI-X
interrupts.
