Removing and Replacing Hot-Pluggable PCI-X Cards
The server has four 64-bit, 133 MHz PCI-X accessory card sockets located in a removable card
cage. You must remove the PCI-X card cage before removing or installing PCI-X cards. The
following sections explain how to remove and install PCI-X cards.
PCI-X Configurations
PCI-X slots are numbered 1 through 4 from the top down in the server; 4 is the outermost slot.
Configuration requirements for slots 1 through 4 are as follows:
• Slot 1: The maximum speed for a card in slot 1 is 133 MHz. If you use different modes, such
as PCI-X instead of PCI-X, or different card speeds, the slot automatically downgrades to
the lesser mode or speed.
• Slots 2 - 4: The maximum speed for cards in slots 2 - 4 is 133/2 MHz.
