PCIe Slot Configuration Guidelines
You can install up to eight low-profile PCIe in the system. All slots are wired to x8
PCIe lanes. Slot 1 and Slot 7 support graphics cards with x16 connectors. Slot 4 and
Slot 5 also support 10-Gbyte Ethernet cards (XAUI cards). When a XAUI card is
installed, a PCIe card cannot be installed in the same slot.
If you are installing a XAUI card, note the following:
■If you are installing a XAUI card in XAUI Port 0, the onboard NET1 port
is disabled.
■If you are installing a XAUI card in XAUI Port 1, the onboard NET0 port
is disabled.
