How to install HPE DL38X Gen10 Plus x16/x16 Slot 1/2 Secondary Riser Kit

Step 1 Power down the HPE DL38X Gen10 Plus server and unplug all power sources. Remove the side access panel to gain clear access to the backplane area where PCIe risers are installed. Ensure you follow proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions to protect sensitive components.

Step 2 Identify the secondary riser slot and confirm you have the correct expansion bay free of obstructions. If your chassis design requires rear fan clearance or specific cabling routes, plan the installation path to avoid airflow disruption and ensure easy future maintenance.

Step 3 Align the HPE DL38X Gen10 Plus x16/x16 Slot 1/2 Secondary Riser Kit with the riser connector on the motherboard/backplane. Gently press to seat the riser in place, ensuring a firm, secure connection to prevent any interference or looseness during operation.

Step 4 Secure the riser kit using the appropriate mounting screws or brackets as specified by HPE’s hardware guide. Confirm that all fasteners are tightened to the recommended torque and that there is no warping or misalignment that could affect card seating.

Step 5 Reinstall the server side panel, reconnect power, and boot the system. Enter the BIOS/UEFI setup to verify that both PCIe x16 slots are detected and are configured for the desired operating mode (for example, PCIe Gen 3 or Gen 4 as supported by your processor and motherboard). Update BIOS and firmware if prompted to ensure optimal compatibility with the riser kit.

Step 6 Install the PCIe cards you intend to use in the two x16 slots. Confirm that each card is properly seated and secured, then power on the system again to perform a post-check. Use the operating system’s device manager or a hardware monitoring tool to verify recognition, temperature, and performance metrics for each card.

Step 7 Run a basic validation suite or vendor-provided diagnostics to confirm stability under load. Pay attention to power draw and thermal behavior; ensure that cooling airflow remains unobstructed by the added hardware. If any anomalies are detected, consult HPE support resources for guidance on power, thermals, or BIOS adjustments.

Not super durable but good squeak while they work
Color: Multi Squeaker Balls, Size: Large, Style: 4-Pack
My dog loves these but they break very quickly. I've got an older set that was incredibly durable, but these all stopped squeaking/got holes after the first or second play session

Heavy chewer approved.
Style: Ball, Size: Medium (Pack of 1)
My pomsky will destroy a toy in minutes. Ropes, and the "indestructible" nylon type stuffs are no match for my furry shark. This ball has stood up to him like David. He loves the crunch and it is so much more tolerable than a squeaker. These will be a staple in his toy box - Chuckit toys are really the most durable dog toys I have found in three years.
