Installation

Hardware Installation

WARNING! PCI Express cards, like all computer equipment,

can be severely damaged by static electricity. Be sure that

you are properly grounded before opening your computer

case or touching your PCI Express card. StarTech.com recom-

mends that you wear an anti-static strap when installing any

computer component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable,

discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by touch-

ing a large grounded metal surface (such as the computer

case) for several seconds. Also be careful to handle the PCI

Express card by its edges and not the gold connectors.

1. Turn your computer o and any peripherals connected to

the computer (i.e. Printers, external hard drives, etc.). Unplug

the power cable from the rear of the power supply on the

back of the computer and disconnect all peripheral devices.

2. Remove the cover from the computer case. See

documentation for your computer system for details.

3. Locate an open PCI Express slot and remove the metal

cover plate on the rear of the computer case (Refer to

documentation for your computer system for details).

Note: This card will work in PCI Express slots of additional

lanes (i.e.x4, x8, or x16 slots).

4. Gently insert the card into the open PCI Express slot and

fasten the bracket to the rear of the case.

prole system, replacing the pre-installed full prole bracket

with the included low prole installation bracket may be

necessary.
