Hey, everyone,

I recently acquired an Onyx2 deskside (sadly missing all of its plastics and the caster tray :/) and I'm having a bit of an issue. The left-side node board is having issues according to the diagnostics console and I'm trying to remove it. However, no matter what I've tried, it refuses to come loose from the system.

Beyond the top and bottom Phillips screws and the two hex bolts for the compression connector, is there anything else that would mechanically secure the board to the midplane or the chassis? If not, I'm thinking, based upon the little bit I'm able to see and feel near the midplane, that one of the hex bolts may have broken or become stuck. They do both appear to be loose and spinning freely at the far end away from the midplane. If one or both are stuck, would anyone have any advice on how else I could loosen them to remove the node board?

Thanks!
