PCI Expansion Slots

The four PCI bus slots on the system board provide for expansion and performance enhancement.

One slot is in line with a processor module slot; if you install a processor module in this slot, you cannot use the PCI slot.

Two slots share a common chassis I/O expansion slot with two EISA slots. If you use these PCI slots, you cannot use the EISA slots.

The 32-bit PCI bus is a two-segment PCI PeerBus that provides:

32- and 64-bit memory addressing

+5 V and + 3 V signaling environments

burst transfers at 133 MB per second

8-, 16-, or 32-bit data transfers

plug-and-play configuration

PCI PeerBus to maximize throughput.

Peripheral Bays

The server system contains a total of eleven peripheral bays.

The six 3 1/2-inch full-height hot-docking bays support industry standard SCA SCSI hard disk drives. They allow easy setup of Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks (RAID) applications.

The four 5 1/4-inch half-height bays provide space for backup or removable media devices.

The vertical 3 1/2-inch bay contains a 3 1/2-inch diskette drive that supports both 720 KB and 1.44 MB media.

Onboard Super VGA Video Controller

The onboard, integrated Cirrus Logic CL-GD5424 super SVGA controller is fully compatible with the CGA, EGA, Hercules Graphics, MDA, and VGA video standards. The standard system configuration comes with 512 KB of onboard video memory, allowing pixel resolutions of 640 x 480 and 800 x 600 in 256 colors, and 1024 x 768 x 16 colors. The SVGA controller supports only analog monitors (single and multiple frequency, interlaced and noninterlaced) with a maximum vertical retrace interlaced frequency of 87 Hz.
