V CAUTION!
● Before installing/removing expansion cards to/from the server, turn
off the server, all peripheral devices, and any other connected
devices. Also unplug all power cables from the power outlet. Failure
to do so can cause electric shock.
● The circuit boards and soldered parts of internal options are exposed
and can be damaged by static electricity. Before handling them, first
touch a metal part on the server to discharge static electricity from
your body.
● Do not touch the circuitry on boards and soldered parts. Hold the
metallic areas or the edge of the circuit boards.
● Follow the safety instructions in the chapter "Safety instructions" on
page 19.
8.1 Installing expansion cards
The system board offers six PCI slots:
– 5 x PCIe slots, all mechanical x8:
– 2x PCIe x8 slots (Gen2), one slot is open on the right side to allow a x16
graphics card to be inserted
– 2x PCIe x4 slots (Gen2)
– 1x PCIe x4 slot (Gen1)
– 1 x PCI slot (32 bit / 33 MHz)
I Boot controller:
Slot 1 and slot 5 are configured for the boot controller by default. If a boot
controller is to be operated on another slot, this needs to be configured
in the BIOS Setup (Advanced/PCI Configuration/PCI SLOTS
Configuration/Option ROM Scan: Enabled, see the BIOS Setup manual).
The “Option ROM Scan“ setting specifies whether the adapter BIOS is
started by the system BIOS in the respective PCI slot.
