7.4 Installing Expansion Cards
This section explains the types of expansion card, installation procedures, and notes 
on expansion cards.
7.4.1 Where to Install an Expansion Card
This server has two PCI slots. Up to two expansion cards can be installed.
The figure below shows the slot locations.
■ PCI Slot Specifications
• PCI slots 1 and 2 are both 64-bit, 66MHz PCI slots.
• PCI slot 2 can be used for a LowProfile PCI card only.
• The PCI slots conform to the PCI local bus specifications (Rev. 2.2).
• Turn off the server and peripheral devices, and unplug the power cables from          
the outlet. Failure to do so may cause electric shock ("1.4.3 Turning Off the     
Server" (pg.33)).
• The circuit boards and soldered parts of internal options are exposed. They           
can be damaged by static electricity.
Before handling them, first touch a metal part of the server to discharge static             
electricity.
• Do not touch the circuitry on boards or soldered parts. Hold the metallic areas            
or the edges of the circuit boards.
• Expansion cards are susceptible to static electricity. Place them on conductive       
pads or keep them in their packaging as long as they are not necessary.
