Installing or Replacing a PCI Riser Card Caution: The PCI riser card is NOT hot swappable. Before removing or replacing the PCI riser card, you must first take the server out of service, turn off all peripheral devices connected to the system, turn off the system by pressing the power button, and unplug the AC power cord from the system or wall outlet. You have the option to install one of two PCI riser cards into your server system: • A full-height PCI Express* riser with one PCI Express x8 slot • A full-height PCI-X* riser with one PCI-X slot Note: To eliminate the possibility of installing the replacement connector on the wrong side of the PCI riser assembly, replace one connector at a time. Removing a PCI Riser Card 1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions at the beginning of this book. See "Safety Information" on page iii. 2. Power down the server and unplug all peripheral devices and the AC power cable. 3. Remove the server system cover. For instructions, see "Removing the Server System Cover" on page 28. 4. Disconnect any cables attached to any add-in cards. 5. Remove the PCI riser assembly. For instructions, see "Removing the PCI Riser Assembly" on page 60. 6. Remove any add-in cards from the PCI riser connector. For instructions, see "Removing a PCI Add-in Card" on page 65. 7. Remove the two screws that attach the riser card to the riser assembly. See the following figure. Save these screws to be used later. AF001061 Figure 59. Removing Riser Card from Riser Assembly 62 Intel® Server System SR1530AH / SR1530AHLX / SR1530HAHLX
