Replacing a ServeRAID M5016 SAS/SATA Controller
You can purchase an optional ServeRAID M5016 SAS/SATA controller. This
adapter can be installed only in the PCI slots list in Table 15 on page 276. The
ServeRAID M5016 adapter supports RAID levels 0, 1, and 10. With the ServeRAID
M5100 Series 1 GB Flash/RAID 5 Upgrade for IBM System x cache card that comes
with this adapter, you also get RAID levels 5 and 50 support. For configuration
information, see the ServeRAID documentation at http://www.ibm.com/systems/
support/.
Attention:
Some cluster solutions require specific code levels or coordinated code
updates. If the device is part of a cluster solution, verify that the latest level of
code is supported for the cluster solution before you update the code.
Note:
1.
When the IBM 4x4 Drive Backplane ServeRAID Expansion adapter is installed
in the server, this adapter installs in slot 2 on the two-slot PCI riser card (see
“PCI riser card with two slots” on page 26).
To install an IBM ServeRAID M5016 SAS/SATA adapter, complete the following

Attention:
Incomplete insertion might cause damage to the server or the
adapter.
5.
Reinstall the riser-card assembly into the system board.
6.
Reconnect the cables to the adapter. Be sure to route the signal cables through
the SAS cable guide and up and over the rear of the microprocessor air baffle;
then, through the loops on the scalability connector cover and then to the
adapter (see the following illustration). Use the cable ties (as shown in the
