4.6 Reinstalling the RAID Controller on the Motherboard
Follow these steps to reinstall your MegaRAID 9271 RAID controller on the motherboard.
1. Make sure that the power to the chassis is still turned off, the power cords are unplugged, and the chassis is
grounded and has no AC power.
2. Install the RAID controller in a PCI Express slot on the motherboard, as shown in the following figure.
3. Press down gently, but firmly, to seat the card correctly in the slot.
4. Secure the controller to the computer chassis with the bracket screw.
NOTE Some PCI Express slots support PCI Express graphics cards only. If a RAID controller is installed in
one of these slots, the controller will not function. Refer to your computer documentation for information
about the PCI Express slot.
