During system boot, the PCI slots are initialized in the following order: PCI slot P1 PCI slot P2 PCI slot P3 PCI slot P4 PCI slot P5 PCI slot P6 Four PCI slots (P1-P4) support full-length 32-bit boards at a clock rate of 33 MHz. These slots only support +5 VDC power and Universal boards. These slots have keys in the upper half of the board slot to prevent 3.3Volt boards from being inserted into the slots. Two PCI slots (P5-P6) support full-length 32- or 64-bit boards at clock rates of 33 MHz. These slots only support +5 VDC power and Universal boards. These slots have keys in the upper half of the board slot to prevent 3.3Volt boards from being inserted into the slots. Which Disk Array Controller (NetRAID) card is supported in the NetServer LC 2000? HP recommends ONLY using the NetRAID 3Si (D5595A) and NetRAID 1Si (D2140A) PCI board in the NetServer LC 2000.
