Installing a ServeRAID SAS controller on the SAS riser card
Important:
If you have installed a SAS expander card in a 12-drive-capable server,
the SAS controller is installed in a PCI riser-card assembly and is installed and
removed the same way as any other PCI adapter. Do not use the instructions in this
topic; use the instructions in “Installing a PCI adapter” on page 53 and “Removing a
PCI adapter” on page 56.
