2.3 Detailed Installation
This section provides detailed instructions on how to install your 12Gb/s MegaRAID SATA+SAS RAID controller.
The figure in this section shows the installation of the MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i RAID controller in a PCIe slot. You can
install the other MegaRAID SAS RAID controllers in the same way.
1. Unpack your 12Gb/s MegaRAID SATA+SAS RAID controller.
Unpack and remove your RAID controller. Inspect it for damage. If it appears damaged, or if any of the following
items are missing, contact your Avago Customer and Technical Support representative. The RAID controller is
shipped with the following items:
A CD that contains an electronic version of this user’s guide, and other related documentation
A license agreement
Warranty information
2. Turn off the power to the system.
Turn off the power to the computer, and disconnect the AC power cord. Remove the computer cover. Refer to the
system documentation for instructions. Before you install the controller, make sure that the computer is
disconnected from the power and from any networks.
3. Review the RAID controller jumpers and connectors.
The jumpers are set at the factory, and you usually do not need to change them. See Chapter 3, MegaRAID SAS
RAID Controller Characteristics, for diagrams of the 12Gb/s MegaRAID SATA+SAS RAID controllers that show their
jumpers and connectors.
4. Install the RAID controller.
Select a PCIe slot, and align the controllers PCIe bus connector to the slot, as shown in the following figure. Press
down gently, but firmly, to make sure that the card is seated correctly in the slot. Secure the bracket to the
computer chassis with the bracket screw.
ATTENTION If your RAID controller has a CVFM module, do not press down on the
module when you insert the controller.
NOTE This RAID controller is a PCIe x8 card, and it can operate in x8 or x16
slots. However, some PCIe slots support only PCIe graphics cards; a
controller installed in one of these slots will not function. Refer to the
guide for your motherboard for information about the PCIe slot.
