Optional Components
Optional Components
Optional components, such as additional memory or PCIe cards that were ordered as part of the
system, are installed in the server at the factory before the server is shipped. Any options not
ordered with the system are shipped separately. If possible, install these components prior to
installing the server in a rack.
Except for the rackmount kits, if you ordered any options that are not factory-installed, refer
to the service manual for the server and the component's documentation for installation
instructions.
