Host Board Slot Overview

Inserting Host/Expansion Boards

Important!
  • Identical host/expansion board combinations must be used, in the same order, on both controllers.
  • When installing an expansion board, use the HB 5 slot.
  • Refer to the Host Board and Memory Guide on Infortrend’s website for more information, including supported host board types, supported combinations, and important notes. Go to Support > Technical Support, find your model, and then go to Downloads.
  1. Loosen the screw that secures the dummy bracket, and then remove the bracket from the chassis.

    Note:

    The HB 3 slot is used as an illustrating example. The same steps apply to the other slots.

  2. Insert a host board into the module slot.

  3. Tighten the thumb screw to secure the host board.
