3 Determine whether the dirty cache LED on the controller is illuminated. If the LED is illuminated, replace the system cover, reconnect the system to power, turn on the system, and repeat step 1 and step 2. See Figure 3-10. NOTE: The location of the PERC 5/i varies from system to system. See the Hardware Owner’s Manual included with the system for specific information on where the PERC 5/i is located. If the LED is not illuminated, continue with the next step. Figure 3-10. PERC 5/i Adapter Dirty Cache LED Location 4 Disconnect the data cables and battery cable from the PERC 5/i. 5 Remove any retention mechanism, such as a bracket screw, that might be holding the PERC 5/i in the system, and gently lift the controller from the system’s PCI-E slot. See Figure 3-11. 36 Hardware Installation and Configuration bracket screw memory module PERC 5/i Adapter dirty cache LED
Figure 3-11. Removing the PERC 5/i Adapter bracket screw memory module NOTE: See the Hardware Owner's Manual for information on removing the PERC 5/i from the system. Removing the DIMM from a PERC 5/i Card PERC 5/i Adapter This section describes how to remove the memory module on a PERC 5/i Adapter or PERC 5/i that is currently installed in a system. NOTE: PERC 5 cards support DELL-qualified 256-MB DDRII 400MHz ECC-registered DIMMs with x16 DRAM components. Installing unsupported memory causes the system to hang at POST. 1 Perform a controlled shutdown on the system in which the PERC 5/i is installed and remove the PERC 5/i from the system by following the instructions detailed in the section "Removing the PERC 5/i Adapter" on page 35. CAUTION: Running a system without the system cover installed can cause damage due to improper cooling. 2 Remove the DIMM by pressing down on the tabs at each edge of the DIMM connector and lifting the DIMM off the controller. NOTE: The location of the PERC 5/i varies from system to system. See the Hardware Owner’s Manual that shipped with the system for specific information on the location of the PERC 5/i.
