the board be held by its top edge or upper corners, aligned with its mating

connector on the system board (when installing), and pressed firmly into

or pulled firmly from its expansion slot. You might need to gently rock

the board side-to-side to align and seat or unseat it fully in or out of its

connector.

The following advisory applies to installing or removing a hard disk drive:

!When installing or removing a hard disk drive, it is recommended that its

carrier handle be left in a straight outward position after it is opened, until

either the carrier is fully seated in its connector or removed from the drive

bay. To move a hard disk drive in or out of a bay, the outside edges of the

carrier's front panel should be used.
