Working with adapters You can install up to five peripheral component interconnect (PCI) adapters in the expansion connectors on the system board. Your server comes with a video controller. This video controller is an integrated component on the system board. It is not removable. If you want to disable this controller and use a video adapter instead, you can install a video adapter in an expansion slot. When you install a video adapter, the server BIOS automatically disables the integrated video controller. The following illustration shows the location of the PCI expansion slots on the system board. 1 PCI slot 5 64-bit (J44) 2 PCI slot 4 64-bit (J39) 3 PCI slot 3 64-bit (J34) 4 PCI slot 2 32-bit (J32) 5 PCI slot 1 32-bit (J27) Adapter considerations Before you continue with the adapter-installation procedure: • Review the documentation that comes with the adapter and follow those instructions in addition to the instructions given in this section. If you need to change the switch or jumper settings on your adapter, follow the instructions that come with the adapter. • You can install full-length adapters in all expansion slots. • You can install a 32-bit RAID adapter in any of the PCI slots, but you might want to install it in a 32-bit slot and use the 64-bit slots for 64-bit adapters. 48 Hardware Maintenance Manual: Netfinity 4500R Type 8656
