Detailed Installation Instructions
Figure 1 Card Installation for the LSI Nytro WarpDrive 6203 Cards
NOTE The shape, size, and locations of components on your LSI Nytro WarpDrive
card might vary from this illustration.
5. For highest performance, make sure that the PCIe slot is PCIe 2.0 and make sure that it has an active width of eight
lanes or sixteen lanes. The LSI Nytro WarpDrive card functions with an active width of four lanes or two lanes, but
with reduced performance.
CAUTION The location must meet the 300 LFPM (linear feet/minute) minimum
airflow requirement.
6. Secure the bracket to the system’s chassis. Install the bracket screw, if applicable, or engage the system
retention mechanism to secure the card to the system’s chassis.
7. Replace the cover, reconnect the power cords, and power up the system. Replace the server’s cover,
reconnect the power cords, and reconnect any network cables. Turn on the power.
The LSI Nytro WarpDrive card hardware installation is complete.
