computer.
2
After checking that the personal computer
is off, remove the cover from the personal

connector inside the personal computer.
<Notes>
Install the PCI EXPRESS board with the
PCI EXPRESS connector. Installing with
an ordinary PCI connector may cause
damage to the personal computer.
Since the included PCI EXPRESS
board uses a full height bracket, it
cannot be installed in a low-profile slot.

EXPRESS board to the personal
computer.

the base of the P2 drive.

<Notes>
Use the PCI EXPRESS cable included
with the P2 drive. The unit may not
operate properly if a commercially
available cable of 2 metres or longer is
used.
When connecting the cable, ensure that
both the P2 drive and the personal
computer are off.
Connect after carefully checking the
configuration of the PCI EXPRESS
cable. Connecting the ends in reverse
will damage internal parts and cause
malfunction.
