7 Hardware Installation

The installation instructions for the LSI SAS 9207-8i HBA follow.

1. Unpack the HBA, and inspect it for damage. Unpack the HBA in a static-free environment. Remove the HBA

from the antistatic bag, and carefully inspect it for damage. If you notice any damage contact LSI or your reseller

support representative.

ATTENTION Make a backup of your data before changing your system

configuration to avoid the risk of data loss.

2. Prepare the computer. Turn off the computer, and disconnect the power cord from the rear of the power supply.

CAUTION Disconnect the computer from the power supply and from any

networks before you install the HBA, or you risk damaging the system

or electrical shock.

3. Remove the cover from the chassis.

4. Replace the mounting bracket (system dependent). If required for your system, replace the full-height

mounting bracket that ships on the LSI SAS 9207-8i HBA with the low-profile bracket supplied. Save and reuse the

two screws that attach the long bracket to attach the short bracket.

5. Insert the HBA in an available PCIe slot. Locate an empty x8 PCIe slot. Remove the blank bracket panel on the

rear of the computer that aligns with the empty PCIe slot. Save the bracket screw, if applicable.

Align the HBA to a PCIe slot. Press down gently, but firmly, to correctly seat the HBA in the slot. The following

figure shows how to insert the HBA in a PCIe slot.
