PCI connectors vary among system HBA manufacturers. The
QLA40xx HBA is a 64-bit PCI device that can function in a 32-bit PCI
slot; the slot conforms to the PCI specification (the rear edge of the
PCI slot is notched). If you try to install the QLA40xx HBA into a PCI
slot that does not conform to the PCI specification, you may damage
the QLA40xx HBA.
PCI and PCI-X slots look the same. If the PC contains both PCI and
PCI-X slots, refer to the PC manufacturer’s instructions to determine
the slot type.
The QLA40xx HBAs are designed and tested to operate at PCI bus
speeds of up to 66 MHz.

instructions.
