Removing and Replacing the PCI Backplane
The server backplane is called the PCI backplane and provides four PCI card sockets.
Removing the PCI Backplane
Step 1. Remove all accessory and graphics cards.
Step 2. Unscrew the backplane mounting screws and slide the backplane board toward the bulkhead end of
the PCI cage. This unlocks the backplane from its standoffs.
Step 3. Lift the backplane over the top of the standoffs and slide it out of the cage.
