Working with adapters
You can install up to six PCI adapters in the expansion connectors on the processor
board. All six of the slots are peripheral component interconnect (PCI) expansion
slots.
The server comes with an integrated super video graphics array (SVGA) video
controller, which 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 PCI video adapter, the server BIOS automatically disables the integrated
video controller.
Note: Video adapters are supported in all six PCI slots.
The following illustration shows the location of the 64-bit PCI expansion slots on the
processor board.
Note: The illustrations in this book might differ slightly from your hardware.
