PCI Expansion Card Installation
The system includes a pre-installed riser card (p/n RSC-R1UTP-E16R) that positions one
PCIe card at a 90 degree angle, allowing it to fit inside the chassis.
Installing PCI Expansion Cards
The riser card has already been pre-installed into the motherboard. Perform the following
steps to install an add-on card:
Begin by removing power from the system as described in Section 3.1.
1. Remove the chassis node A or chassis node B.
2. Remove the PCI slot shield on the node by releasing the locking tab.
3. Insert the expansion (add-on) card into the riser card.
4. Secure the card with the locking tab.
