Integrated Storage Controller Card
Your system includes a dedicated slot on the system board for an integrated
storage controller card that provides the storage subsystem for your system’s
internal hard drives. The controller supports SAS and SATA hard drives and
also enables you to set up the hard drives in RAID configurations as
supported by the version of the storage controller included with your system.
Removing an Integrated Storage Controller Card
1
Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect
the system from the electrical outlet and peripherals.
2
Open the system. See "Opening the System."
3
Remove the expansion card stabilizer. See "Removing the Expansion Card
Stabilizer."
4
Disconnect the data cables from the storage card. See Figure 3-17.
To disconnect a cable, press the blue latches on both sides of the cable
connector and ease it out from the connector on the card.
