Expansion card
PCIe I/O slots may supply less bus bandwidth than what is physically defined for the slot.
Expansion card slot description
NOTE: The x1, x4, and x16 designators describe the mechanical length of the slot. The number in
parentheses lists the number of electrical PCIe lanes routed to the expansion slot. For example, x16(4)
means that the expansion slot is mechanically a x16 length connector, with four PCIe lanes connected.
Use the following table to determine PCIe card compatibility.
Table 5-6 HP x210 CMT Workstation PCIe compatibility matrix
Slot Mechanical compatibility Electrical lanes available
1 x8 connector 4
2 x16 connector 16
3 x1 connector 1
4x16 connector 4
5 x1 connector 1
Removing an expansion card
To remove an expansion card:
1. Disconnect power from the workstation (see
Predisassembly procedures on page 62).
2. Remove the side access panel (see
Removing the side access panel on page 65).
