PCIe Expansion System User's Manual

MAGMA

Chapter 4 Install Cards and Drives

This chapter provides information on how to install 3

Party PCIe cards

or hard drives into your Magma expansion chassis. More details on the

installation of individual cards are provided by the card’s manufacturer.

This chapter is provided as a simple guide to help you install your PCIe

cards, or hard drives, in the chassis.

For the purpose of installation, the Magma EB2 functions exactly as a

standard desktop computer chassis. Always follow the manufacturer’s

instructions for installing their card or hard drive on a desktop computer.

IMPORTANT

We will provide reasonable technical support with 3

Party PCIe

cards or hard drives. However, if you have verified a successful

installation of the Magma expansion system (as defined in

Chapter

3), but experience difficulty installing your 3

Party PCIe cards or

hard drive, the card or drive manufacturer should be able to

provide the best support.

By design, the top cover of the chassis is divided in two: One portion,

covering the card expansion bay can be removed by simply unscrewing

a thumbscrew on each side of the chassis (see photo below).
