*** Follow standard ESD procedures to avoid Electrostatic Discharge

1. Power off the server
2. Disconnect all power cables
3. Disconnect any data cables connected to the PCIe/XAUI cards
4. Remove the Top Cover
5. Remove the internal cables connected to the HW RAID PCI card
6. Remove the PCI cross beam.
-Loosen the two captive Phillips screws on each end of the removable PCI cross beam
-Slide the PCI cross beam back to remove it from the chassis
7. Loosen the captive screw securing the riser board containing the HW RAID PCI CARD to the motherboard
8. Remove the riser and the PCIe/XAUI cards attached to it as a unit
9. Carefully remove the HW RAID PCI card from the riser board connector
10. Unscrew the three plastic screws holding the battery module in place and carefully pull the battery module off
11. Line up the new battery backup module connector with the connector on the card
12. Gently press down on the right edge of the battery backup module until the connectors click into place
