Removing an IBM ServeRAID B5015 SSD Controller
To remove an IBM ServeRAID B5015 Solid State Drive (SSD) controller, complete
the following steps:
1.
Read the safety information and installation guidelines, see “Safety” on page vii
and “Installation guidelines” on page 261.
2.
Turn off the server (see “Turning off the server” on page 17) and all attached
peripheral devices. Disconnect all power cords; then, disconnect all external
cables as necessary to replace the device.
3.
Remove the top cover (see “Removing the server top cover” on page 264).
4.
Disconnect the cables from the existing SSD adapter.
5.
Carefully grasp the riser card by the blue touch points and pull it up until the
riser-card assembly disengages from the connector on the system board and set
it aside.
6.
Carefully grasp the SSD adapter and pull it out of the riser-card assembly.
7.
If you are instructed to return the adapter, follow all packaging instructions,
and use any packaging materials for shipping that are supplied to you.
Replacing an IBM ServeRAID B5015 SSD Controller
Note:
1.
This adapter can only be installed in the PCI slots listed in Table 15 on page

The IBM ServeRAID B5015 Solid State Drive (SSD) controller supports RAID levels
1 and 5. 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.
To install an IBM ServeRAID B5015 SSD adapter, complete the following steps:
1.
Read the safety information that begins on page “Safety” on page vii and
“Installation guidelines” on page 261.
2.
Touch the static-protective package that contains the new ServeRAID B5015
SSD adapter to any unpainted surface on the outside of the server; then, grasp
the adapter by the top edge or upper corners of the adapter and remove it
from the package.
3.
Align the ServeRAID B5015 SSD adapter so that the keys align correctly with
the connector on the riser-card assembly.
4.
Insert the SSD adapter into the connector on the riser-card until it is firmly
seated.
Attention:
Incomplete insertion might cause damage to the server or the
adapter.
5.
Reinstall the riser-card assembly onto the system board.
6.
Connect the signal cable 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 illustration) that come with the drive backplane to secure the SAS cables
