Follow these steps to install the network adapter into your computer:

1. Power off your computer and disconnect the power cable from the power supply.
2. Ṣii apoti kọnputa.
3. Locate an available PCI Express (PCIe) slot on your motherboard. The ST1000SPEX2 uses a PCIe x1 interface, compatible with x1, x4, x8, or x16 slots.
4. Remove the metal bracket cover from the chosen PCIe slot on the computer case.
5. If your computer case requires a low-profile bracket, remove the full-profile bracket from the network adapter and attach the included low-profile akọmọ.
6. Carefully insert the network adapter into the PCIe slot, ensuring it is fully seated. Secure the adapter with a screw or retention clip, depending on your case design.
7. Close the computer case and reconnect the power cable.
