2.2. Installing the Server Board
Before installing the server board, exam your chassis to ensure this server board fits
into it. Your chassis should support micro ATX form factor.
1. Face the side of the I/O ports toward the rear part of the chassis.
2. Locate the screw holes on the server board and the chassis base.
3. Place all the studs or spacers needed on the chassis base and have them tightened.
4. Line up all the screw holes on the board with those studs or spacers on the chassis.
5. Tightens all the screw holes.
ATTENTION: To prevent shorting the PCB circuit, please REMOVE the metal studs
or spacers if they are already secured on the chassis base and are without
mounting-holes on the server board to align with.
