Chapter 2: Installing or Removing Memory and Option Boards
1.
If you have not already done so, remove the power cable, and remove the system
module from the chassis. (See “Removing the System Module.”)
Caution:
The small, printed circuit board beneath the PCI tray contains a host chip
with important system information such as the serial number. Do not mix PCI trays
between workstations. If you remove the PCI tray, always replace it, or the
workstation will not operate correctly.
2. Remove the screw and filler panel from the PCI tray.
Keep the panel. If you later remove the PCI board and do not replace it, you must
reinstall the filler panel and screw (Figure 2-24).

Removing the Screw and Filler Panel
Note:
PCI boards with extra long I/O connectors may be difficult to install. In this case,
slide the board into the tray at an angle, inserting the side with the I/O connector first,
and then rotate in the other side.
3. Install the PCI board by sliding the PCI board into the tray and pushing the PCI
connector firmly into the slot. Make sure it is completely seated (Figure 2-25). You
may need to use some pressure to seat it all the way.
