Low profile PCI card removal

To remove the Low profile PCI card, follow these steps:

  1. Remove the service access cover.
  2. Disconnect the power source from the system by unplugging the system.
  3. Determine which adapter you plan to remove, and then label and disconnect all cables attached to that adapter.
  4. Record the slot number and location of each adapter being removed.
    NOTE: Adapter slots are numbered on the rear of the system.
  5. If the adapter latch is not already in the open position, pull the latch into the open position by pressing down on it from its hold on the back of the system.
  6. Carefully grasp the PCI adapter by its top edge or tailstock, and remove it from the system. Store the adapter in a safe place.
