2.
If you are servicing a PCIe card, locate its position on the riser.
3.
Disconnect any data cables connected to the cards on the PCIe riser being
removed.
To disconnect a cable from a PCIe card, press the latch, push in toward the connector, and then
pull out to remove the cable.
Note the location of all cables for reinstallation later.
4.
Ensure that the latch adjacent to the location where PCIe riser is installed is in
the open (down) position [1].
If the latch is in the closed position, it prevents you from removing the PCIe riser.
5.
Loosen the three green captive Phillips screws that secure the PCIe riser to the
server node [1].
Access these screws from the rear of the server node.
6.
Loosen the green captive Phillips screw that secures the PCIe riser to the
motherboard [2].
7.
To lift the PCIe riser out of the server node, grasp the front-most side plastic tab
with one hand and the rear of the riser with the other hand, and lift it straight up
and out of the server node [2].
8.
Place the PCIe riser and any cards attached to it on an antistatic mat.
