Symbios Logic 8100 Kit
The Symbios Logic 8100 card is a plug and play card. There are no jumpers that you have to
configure on the card itself, all you have to do is plug the card into an available PCI slot inside
your computer.
Be sure to turn off your computer, and unplug it before opening.
NOTE: You should have a screwdriver handy before you begin installation of the 8100 card.
The next step is to remove the cover of your computer so that you can see inside. Some
computer systems have screws located on the back of the case that you will need to remove in
order to take off the cover, only the screws holding the cover of the computer on need to be
removed. Some systems require you to pull the cover forward to remove it, some lift right off.
You may need to remove some screws to take the cover off your computer.
IMPORTANT! Before you touch any components inside the computer, touch the metal
case to ground yourself and discharge any static electricity that you may have
accumulated.
Once the cover is removed, locate a free PCI expansion slot. (PCI slots are short, and are
typically white or ivory.) We are going to place the Symbios Logic SCSI card into a slot.
The screw holding the metal plate in must be loosened in order to remove the plate. Once the
plate is removed, place the card into the slot, with the end of the card sticking out the back of
the computer. The picture on the next page shows a free computer slot, with the metal plate
removed.
