Important: Read before using the MAX5!!!!

Before you attach the MAX5 to the server and try to use it, you must update the server firmware with the latest level of firmware or code. If you attach and try to use the MAX5 without updating the server firmware, you might get unexpected system behavior or the server might not power on. For special instructions to follow before you attach the MAX5 to the server, go to http://www.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/docdisplay?lndocid=MIGR-5085756.
