Internal RAID/HBA/expander adapter replacement

Follow instructions in this section to remove and install an internal customer form factor (CFF) RAID adapter, internal CFF HBA adapter, or internal CFF RAID expander adapter.

The server supports RAID/HBA adapters in two form factors:

  • Customer form factor (CFF): RAID/HBA adapters in this form factor are supported only when two processors are installed. CFF RAID/HBA adapters are installed between the front backplane and fan cage.

  • Standard form factor (SFF): RAID/HBA adapters in this form factor are installed in the PCIe expansion slots, see Rear PCIe adapter and riser assembly replacement.
