Installing an adapter The following notes describe the types of adapters that the server supports and other information that you must consider when installing an adapter. v Locate the documentation that comes with the adapter and follow those instructions in addition to the instructions in this section. If you must change the switch setting or jumper settings on the adapter, follow the instructions that come with the adapter. v Read the documentation that comes with the operating system. v The server comes with three PCI slots and three PCI-X slots. Slot number Slot 1 Slot 2 Slot 3 Slot 4 Slot 5 Slot 6 Comments v PCI Express x16 v Supports any PCI Express adapter that is in the ServerProven list (go to http://www.ibm.com/pc/compat/ for the list of supported adapters) v PCI 32-bit, 33 MHz, 5 V signalling v Supports half-length PCI adapter v Supports Remote Supervisor Adapter II v PCI 32-bit, 33 MHz, 5 V signalling v Supports full-length PCI adapter v PCI-X 64-bit, 133 MHz, 3.3 V signalling v Supports full-length PCI or PCI-X adapter v PCI-X 64-bit, 100 MHz, 3.3 V signalling v Supports ServeRAID 6i+ adapter v Supports full-length PCI or PCI-X adapter v PCI-X 64-bit, 100 MHz, 3.3 V signalling v Supports full-length PCI or PCI-X adapter v You can install any supported PCI Express adapter in slot 1. For a list of supported PCI Express adapters for the server, go to http://www.ibm.com/pc/us/ compat/. v You can install full-length adapters in PCI and PCI-X slots 3, 4, 5, and 6. v You can install only 32-bit adapters in the 32-bit PCI slots 2 and 3, and 64-bit adapters in the 64-bit PCI-X slots 4, 5, and 6. v The PCI bus configuration is as follows: - PCI slot 1 is on the PCI Express x16 bus. - The 32-bit PCI slots 2 and 3 and the integrated ATI Radeon 7000M video controller are on the 33 MHz PCI bus. - The 64-bit PCI-X slot 4 is on the 133 MHz PCI-X bus, channel B. - The 64-bit PCI-X slots 5 and 6 and the integrated Adaptec 7902 SCSI controller are on the 100 MHz PCI-X bus, channel A. If an optional ServeRAID 6i+ adapter is installed, it overrides the standard functionality of the integrated SCSI controller with RAID capabilities and forces PCI-X slots 5 and 6 to 66 MHz. v The optional IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter II can be installed only in PCI slot 2. Use the ribbon cable that comes with this adapter to connect it to the Remote Supervisor Adapter II connector on the system board. v If you install the optional IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter II, you must disconnect the video (monitor) cable from the server video connector and connect it to the optional Remote Supervisor Adapter II. v The optional ServeRAID 6i+ adapter can be installed only in PCI-X slot 5.
