Caveats
■ If you choose an external drives PCIe RAID controller (Cisco 12G SAS 9300-8e HBA), it will
consume one PCIe slot.
■ A maximum of two or three storage accelerator cards are supported (riser option
dependent) and they must be installed in riser 1 only. The Cisco 12G SAS 9300-8e also can
only be installed in riser 1; therefore if you install a Cisco 12G SAS 9300-8e, it must displace
one of the storage accelerator cards.
■ For 1-CPU systems:
— Only the PCIe slots on PCIe riser 1 are available for 1-CPU system.
— The PCIe slots on riser 2 are not supported on 1-CPU systems. The slots are
full-height PCIe slots 4, 5, and 6 (see
Figure 5 on page 9). These are the slots on
the right when looking at the rear of the server.

Notes . . .
1. The mLOM cards do not plug into any of the riser 1 or riser 2 card slots; instead, they plug into a connector
inside the server chassis.
2. These cards and the GPU cards (see ORDER GPU CARDS(OPTIONAL), page 42) must be inserted into a full
length x16 (electrical) PCIe slot. See Riser Card Configuration and Options, page 70 for more details. The
rest of the PCIe cards are x8 (electrical) and can be plugged into any PCIe slot of riser 1 or riser 2.
3. A maximum of two or three storage accelerator cards (riser option dependent) are supported and they must be
installed in riser 1 only. The Cisco 12G SAS 9300-8e also can only be installed in riser 1; therefore if you install
a Cisco 12G SAS 9300-8e, it must displace one of the storage accelerator cards.
