QUICK HBA INSTALLATION
To install the LSI20320IE, follow these steps:
Step 1 Unpack the HBA in a static-free environment.
Remove the HBA from the antistatic bag and
inspect it for damage. If it appears to be
damaged, or if any component is missing, contact
LSI or your reseller support representative.
Step 2 Turn off the computer and remove the power cord
from the back of the power supply. Remove the
cover from the chassis. Be certain to disconnect
the computer from the power supply and from any
networks before installing the controller card.
Step 3 Insert the LSI20320IE in an available
PCI Express slot.
Locate an empty PCI Express slot. Remove the
blank bracket panel on the back of the computer
that is aligned with the PCI Express slot you have
selected. Save the bracket screw when present.
Align the HBA to a PCI Express slot. Press down
gently but firmly to properly seat the HBA in the
slot. The following figure shows how to insert the
HBA in a PCI Express slot.
