Expansion cards
The server has two expansion slots on the riser card that can be used for a
variety of expansion cards. These slots support 64-bit, 66 MHz PCI cards. Both
slots will hold full-length, full-height cards.
Replacing an expansion card
You must install an expansion card in slot 1 before you can install an
expansion card in slot 2.
To replace an expansion card:
1 Set any jumpers and switches on the replacement card, if required in the
card instructions.
2 Turn off the server, then disconnect the power cord and all external
peripheral devices.
3 Open the case. See Opening the case on page 18 and Preventing static
electricity discharge on page 17.
4 Disconnect any cables attached to the old card.
5 Remove the screw that holds the expansion card bracket in place.
