2.0 INSTALLING DAG 6.1S CARD
Introduction
Given the DAG 6.1S card can be installed in any free PCI-X 1.0 slot, it
operates at 66, 100, and 133 MHz. The DAG 6.1S will not operate in 32
or 64-bit PCI slots.
Higher speed slots are recommended for best performance.
The DAG 6.1S should be the only device on the PCI-X bus if possible, as
the cards make very heavy use of PCI-X bus data transfer resources.
Although the driver supports up to four DAG cards by default in one
system, due to band width limitations there should not be more than one
card on a single PCI-X bus.
