PCI card slots
The Power 755 has a maximum of five hot-plug slots.
• Slot 1 is a PCIe x8 short-length slot. A GX++ slot shares this slot.
• Slot 2 is a PCIe x8 short-length slot.
• Slot 3 is a PCIe x8 full-length slot.
• Slots 4 and 5 are PCIX DDR 266 MHz full-length slots.
• All slots are hot pluggable except slot 1 when used as a GX slot.
Graphics adapters
• A graphics adapter, keyboard, and mouse are not required in the minimum
configuration.
• The maximum number of graphics adapters supported in the Power 755 is three.
I/O adapters
• Integrated Virtual Ethernet feature (#5613, #5623, #5624), and the SAS
RAID Enablement feature (#5679) are not plugged into a slot, leaving the slots
available for PCI adapters or GX adapters.
• Refer to Figure 2 for additional I/O adapter information.
• The adapter installed in slot 1 or 2 must be short.
