PCI Adapters Before performing this procedure, read "Safety Notices" on page vii. Notes: 1. Some PCI adapter cards are shipped from the manufacturer with a blue handle or support along the back edge of the card. To use in this system unit, you must remove the blue handle or support from the card. 2. For adapter installation, the system must be powered off. Hot-pluggable PCI adapters are not supported. Non-Hot-Pluggable PCI Adapter Removal To remove a PCI adapter, do the following: 1. Place the system into the service position as described in "Placing the Model 275 into the Service and Operating Position" on page 26. 2. Shut down the system as described in "Stopping the System" on page 25. 3. Disconnect the power source to the system. Note: This system may be equipped with a second power supply. Before continuing with this procedure, ensure that the system power source is completely disconnected. 4. Remove the service access cover as described in "Service Access Cover Removal" on page 28. 5. Determine which adapter you plan to remove, then label and disconnect all cables attached to that adapter. 6. Record the slot number and location of each adapter being removed. Note: Adapter slots are numbered on the rear of the system unit. 7. Before handling any card, board, or memory DIMM, be sure to use your electrostatic discharge strap to minimize static-electric discharge. Refer to "Handling Static-Sensitive Devices" on page 24.
