Install the PERC H355 front SAS card

Prerequisites

CAUTION:Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that are shipped with your product.
NOTE:It is recommended that you always use a static mat and static strap while working on components in the interior of the system.

Steps

  1. Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect the system from the electrical outlet.
    NOTE:Perform a graceful shutdown of the sled to ensure that data in the cache is moved to the disk before the controller is removed.
  2. Open the system.
  3. Connect the PERC card to the carrier and ensure that the screws are properly fastened in place.
    CAUTION:To prevent damage to the card, hold the card by its edges only.
  4. Align the carrier with the guide pins until the controller is securely seated.
  5. Slide the card into the connector until it is fully seated in the connector. Tighten the screws on the carrier that connect to the chassis to secure the carrier.
  6. Connect the cable connectors to the card.
    NOTE:Ensure that you connect the cable according to the connector labels on the cable. The cable does not function properly if reversed.
  7. Close the system.
  8. Reconnect the system to its electrical outlet and turn on the system and any attached peripherals.
