- Non-hot-plug, 64-bit PCI-X slots 3 through 4 (PCI bus B, 133 MHz) - Non-hot-plug, 32-bit PCI slot 5 (PCI bus C, 33 MHz) v The system scans PCI and PCI-X slots 1 through 5 to assign system resources; then, the system starts (boots) the system devices in the following order, if you have not changed the default boot precedence: integrated Ethernet controller, integrated SCSI controller, and then PCI and PCI-X slots 5, 3, 4, 1, and 2. Note: If you are installing an optional ServeRAID-5i controller or other RAID controller, review the following: v No rerouting of the internal SCSI cable is required if you are installing the ServeRAID-5i controller. The ServeRAID-5i controller uses the SCSI connector on the system board for output. v The ServeRAID-5i controller can be installed only in PCI slot 2. v The low-profile 2-U bracket that comes with the controller is required to install the controller. v If the ServeRAID-5i controller is installed, it takes control of the integrated SCSI controller with RAID capabilities and operates at 66 MHz. v To have SCSI capabilities if you remove the ServeRAID-5i controller or other RAID controller, use the Configuration/Setup Utility program to enable the SCSI controller with RAID capabilities.

v
The system scans PCI and PCI-X slots 1 through 5 to assign system resources;
then, the system starts (boots) the system devices in the following order, if you
have not changed the default boot precedence: integrated Ethernet controller,
integrated SCSI controller, and then PCI and PCI-X slots 5, 3, 4, 1, and 2.
Note:
If you are installing an optional ServeRAID-5i controller or other RAID
controller, review the following:
v
No rerouting of the internal SCSI cable is required if you are installing the
ServeRAID-5i controller. The ServeRAID-5i controller uses the SCSI
connector on the system board for output.
v
The ServeRAID-5i controller can be installed only in PCI slot 2.
v
The low-profile 2-U bracket that comes with the controller is required to
install the controller.
v
If the ServeRAID-5i controller is installed, it takes control of the integrated
SCSI controller with RAID capabilities and operates at 66 MHz.
v
To have SCSI capabilities if you remove the ServeRAID-5i controller or
other RAID controller, use the Configuration/Setup Utility program to
enable the SCSI controller with RAID capabilities.

expansion slots on the system board and PCI riser card.
