Expansion slots
The system features seven expansion slots: four PCI slots, one PCI slot/I

O
slot, one PCI/RAIDport, and one shared PCI/ISA slot. The shared slots,
PCI/I2O and PCI/ISA, are represented by multiple connectors on the
system board.
ISA slot connector (AB)
The ISA slot connector supports a single bus-master capable ISA
expansion card. This connector shares space with secondary PCI
connector 4.
PCI slot connectors (AC, AE, AF, AG, AH, AI)
The system board supports six connectors for installation of PCI cards. All
PCI connectors are bus master capable. Three of these connectors, (AG,
AH, and AI) reside on the primary PCI bus and three (AC, AE, and AF)
reside on the secondary PCI bus.
The PCI bus processes peripheral transactions at a system clock speed of up
to 33 MHz.
PCI/RAIDPort connector (AD)
The PCI/RAIDport connector allows you to install either a PCI expansion
card or a dedicated RAIDport card into a single connector.
Caution!
There is a danger of
explosion if the battery is
incorrectly replaced.
Replace the battery only
with the same or equivalent
type recommended by the
manufacturer. Dispose of
used batteries according to
the manufacturer’s
instructions.
