PCI Expansion Card Installation
After the motherboard has been installed, expansion cards may be installed.
Installing an Expansion Card
-
Begin by removing power from the system (see Removing Power) and removing the cover (see Accessing the System).
-
Remove the shield for the PCIe slot that you wish to populate. Verify that the card you are installing is supported by the slot.
-
Seat the card firmly into the slot by pushing down with your thumbs evenly on both sides of the card.
-
Use the thumb screw to secure the expansion card bracket to the rear of the chassis.
-
Repeat this process with each PCI expansion card you want to install into the chassis.
