Installing or removing the ThinkServer RAID 500 Upgrade Key for
Advanced RAID
This topic provides instructions on how to install or remove the ThinkServer RAID 500 Upgrade Key for
Advanced RAID (hereinafter referred to as the TR 500 Key).
The TR 500 Key expands the capability of the installed ThinkServer RAID 500 Adapter by activating RAID 5
and RAID 50 levels for advanced SATA/SAS hardware RAID. You can purchase a TR 500 Key from Lenovo.
Installing the TR 500 Key
Attention:
Do not open your server or attempt any repair before reading and understanding “Safety information”
on page iii and “Guidelines” on page 67.
This topic provides instructions on how to install the TR 500 Key on the ThinkServer RAID 500 Adapter and it
applies only to server models that have a ThinkServer RAID 500 Adapter installed.
Attention:
Back up your data before you begin if you want to reconfigure RAID and reinstall the operating
system after installing the TR 500 Key.
Before you begin, print all the related instructions or ensure that you can view the PDF version on another
computer for reference.
Note:
Use any documentation that comes with the TR 500 Key and follow those instructions in addition to
the instructions in this topic.
To install the TR 500 Key, do the following:
1. Remove all media from the drives and turn off all attached devices and the server. Then, disconnect all
power cords from electrical outlets and disconnect all cables that are connected to the server.
2. If the server is installed in a rack cabinet, remove the server from the rack cabinet and place it on a flat,
clean, and static-protective surface. See the
Rack Installation Instructions
that comes with the server.
3. Remove the server cover. See “Removing the server cover” on page 69.
4. Remove the cooling shroud. See “Removing and reinstalling the cooling shroud” on page 73.
5. Locate the ThinkServer RAID 500 Adapter, which is installed in the PCI Express card slot on the riser
card assembly 2. Then, disconnect any cables from the ThinkServer RAID 500 Adapter.
6. Remove the riser card assembly 2. The procedure is similar to that of the riser card assembly 1. See
“Replacing the riser card assembly 1” on page 144.
7. Touch the static-protective package that contains the TR 500 Key to any unpainted surface on the
outside of the server. Then, take the TR 500 Key out of the package.
