Slot ordering in PE6R4 should begin with the slot farthest away from the power supply – labeled SLOT 4.
Generally, when installing 3rd Party PCI cards in the Magma expansion chassis, it should make no difference which PCI slot you place your cards in, unless specified by the card manufacturer.
Install PCI cards following PCI card manufacturer’s recommendations. Some PCI card manufacturers recommend that you install their software driver(s) prior to installing the hardware. If this is the case, you should install their driver before you connect and power up the expansion chassis.
Make sure that all PCI cards are fully seated in their connectors. When correctly seated in its connector, you will notice a firm resistance when you pull up gently on the card. To keep the cards in place, secure them in the enclosure with their retaining screws (supplied with the Magma expansion chassis).
IMPORTANT
The sheer number of PCI cards and device drivers available makes it impossible for Mobility to fully test and certify all available PCI cards for use in the Magma expansion chassis. Our best advice to you in this regard is to insist on full PCI Specification compliance from your card and system vendors. Cards and systems should be at least PCI Specification Revision 2.0 compliant or better. Compliance in your system motherboard, PCI cards, and console firmware (or BIOS) is your best assurance that everything will install and operate smoothly.
