(1) Host interface card (HIC)
(2) Thumbscrews
7. Place the HIC on a static-free surface.
Step 4: Install host interface card
Install the new host interface card (HIC) to increase the number of host ports in your storage array.
Possible loss of data access — Never install a HIC in an E2800 controller canister if that HIC
was designed for another E-Series controller. In addition, if you have a duplex configuration,
both controllers and both HICs must be identical. The presence of incompatible or mismatched
HICs will cause the controllers to lock down when you apply power.
Steps
1. Unpack the new HIC and the new HIC faceplate.
2. Using a #1 Phillips screwdriver, remove the four screws that attach the HIC faceplate to the controller
canister, and remove the faceplate.
