Replacing the Full-Height Bracket with a Low-Profile Bracket
If you are installing your Adaptec RAID controller into a low-profile computer cabinet, replace 
the original full-height bracket with the low-profile bracket included in your distribution kit. 
The full-height bracket is mounted on the front of the controller, the low-profile bracket is 
mounted on the back of the controller, as shown in the figure below.
