3.1

Overview

PCI is a high-speed standard local bus for interfacing I/O components to the processor and

memory subsystems in a server. The component height on the top and bottom of the

SRCU42X controller follow the

PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.2,

and

PCI-X

Addendum to the PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 1.0a

. The Intel RAID Controller

SRCU42X is used in PCI-X and PCI computer systems with PCI standard bracket types.
