Perform BIOS Upgrade

It is not necessary to update the system BIOS when upgrading adapter cards. However, some adapter cards contain proprietary BIOS programs that might require upgrading to ensure compatibility with other components in the server system. Although such a situation is rarely encountered throughout a career, a server technician should nevertheless be prepared for it. If any doubts exist, refer to the adapter manuals and the associated manufacturer’s website for specific information.

Alert

Know that system BIOS updating is not required when upgrading server adapter cards.
