Expansion Cards
Your system supports up to seven full-length expansion cards, installed in connectors on a riser card. The expansion slots are configured as follows:
¡ Slot 1 is a 5-V, 32-bit, 33-MHz legacy PCI expansion slot.
¡ Slots 2 through 5 are 3.3-V, 64-bit, 133-MHz PCI-X expansion slots.
¡ Slot 6 is a hot-plug, x4 lane-width PCI-Express expansion slot.
¡ Slot 7 is a hot-plug, x8 lane-width PCI-Express expansion slot.
Figure6-11 shows the relative locations of the expansion-card slots

Hot-Plug Expansion Cards
Your system supports PCI Express hot-plug expansion cards in slots 6 and 7. The indicators on each expansion slot insulator show the state of the expansion-
card connector. See Figure6-11 and Table6-1.

Removing the Expansion-Card Cage
To install non-hot plug expansion cards or access certain system components such as the processors, you must remove the expansion-card cage.
1. Turn off the system and attached peripherals, and disconnect the system from the electrical outlet.
2. Open the system. See "Opening the System" in "Troubleshooting Your System."
3. Disconnect the SCSI data cable(s) from the riser card.
CAUTION: Only trained service technicians are authorized to remove the system cover and access any of the components inside the system. See
your Product Information Guide for complete information about safety precautions, working inside the computer, and protecting against
electrostatic discharge.
