These slots allow you to install accessory boards as follows:

• Slots 2 and 3 can be used for 32-bit PCI boards.

• Slot 4 can be used for a full-length 16-bit ISA board or a 32-bit PCI board.

• Slots 5 and 6 can be used for full-length 16-bit ISA boards

The NetServer comes with a SCSI card preinstalled and configured in Slot 1, and a network interface card

preinstalled and configured in Slot 3.

NOTE If you are manually configuring an accessory board, avoid using COM1 and COM4, if

possible, due to the possibilities of resource conflicts with some application software

programs.
