Removing and installing expansion cards
PCIe I/O slots can support other PCIe cards with less bus bandwidth than what is physically defined for
the slot.
Expansion card slot description
NOTE:
The x1, x4, and x16 designators describe the mechanical length of the slot. The number in
parentheses lists the number of electrical PCIe lanes routed to the expansion slot. For example, x16(4)
means that the expansion slot is mechanically a x16 length connector, with four PCIe lanes connected.
Use the following table to determine PCIe card compatibility.

Removing an expansion card
To remove an expansion card:
1.
Prepare the computer for servicing by following the
Predisassembly procedures
on page
68
.
CAUTION:
Failure to follow the predisassembly procedures can result in equipment damage or
data loss.
2.
Remove the access panel (see
Removing the access panel
on page
71
).
3.
Remove any cables connected to the expansion card.
