PCI or PCI-X adapters
The following notes describe the types of adapters that your server supports and
other information that you must consider when installing a PCI or PCI-X adapter:
v The server supports 3.3 V and universal PCI and PCI-X adapters; it does not
support 5.0-V-only adapters.
v The following illustration shows the location and bus speeds of the PCI-X
expansion slots on the I/O board.
Note: The illustrations in this document might differ slightly from your hardware.

v Slot 1 is a PCI slot and is dedicated to the Remote Supervisor Adapter II. The
adapter will operate in PCI mode only. The bus speed is 33 MHz only. The
adapter is non-hot-swappable; turn off the server when removing and installing
the adapter.
v For slots 2 through 6, the bus speed will be set to the speed of the adapter; if a
PCI adapter is installed, the bus will run in PCI mode.
v If you install a ServeRAID 6i adapter, it must be installed in slot 2.
v If you install an IXA adapter, it must be installed in slot 3.
v Locate the documentation that comes with the adapter and follow those
instructions in addition to the instructions in this chapter.
