Notes:
1. Rules for GPU adapters:
• All installed GPU adapters must be identical. For thermal requirement on GPUs, see
“Server models
with GPUs” on page 72
.
• The air baffles for GPU adapters vary according to the GPU type. For detailed information, see
“GPU
replacement” on page 108
.
• If GPU adapters are installed, no middle drive cage, rear drive cage, or PCIe SSD cards are
supported.
• Only a maximum of six T400 and T1000 GPU adapters are not supported. The T400 and T1000 GPU
adapters are not supported on a Gen 5 riser card.
• If a double-wide GPU adapter is installed in slot 5, 7 or 2, the adjacent slot 4, 8, or 1 respectively is
not available.
• When there are three or more SFF RAID/HBA adapters installed, only a maximum of two double-wide
GPU adapters are supported.
2. Rules for the internal SFF RAID/HBA adapters:
