Removing and Replacing Components
Removing an Accessory or Graphics Card
CAUTION: Avoid Static Electricity. Static electricity can damage electronic components. Power off all
equipment before installing an accessory card. Do not let your clothes touch an accessory card. To
equalize the static electricity when replacing an accessory card, rest the accessory card bag on top of the
server while you are removing the card from the bag. Handle the card as little as possible and with care.
To remove an accessory or graphics card, follow these steps:
1. Power off server, disconnect all power and external cables, and remove the server covers.
2. Lift up on the PCI/AGP cage release lever and the back edge of the PCI/AGP cage and lift
the PCI/AGP cage out of the server.
Removing the PCI/AGP Cage
NOTE: If you are removing an AGP card, you may also need to remove the AGP shipment
retainer. Turn the shipment retainer counterclockwise and lift it out of the server.
