Adapters and Peripherals 

 

  

Revision 1.3 

 

4.  Adapters and Peripherals 

Add-in adapter card and peripheral compatibility and stress testing will only be performed with 
the latest version of an operating system at the time the validation testing occurred.  The 
following table shows the operating system and base system configurations used to validate 
each device.  The adapters are divided into categories based on their functionality.  All 
integrated on-board devices are tested by default and are therefore not included in the following 
tables. 

Note that not all adapter cards were tested under all operating systems.  The following notations 
are used in the tested adapters and peripherals table below to indicate the support level that 
Intel provides for a particular adapter under a particular operating system: 

Number (i.e. 1) 

This adapter or peripheral has been tested and is supported under the specific 
configuration identified in the Base System Configurations Table in Section 2 of this 
document. 

Number in brackets (i.e. [1]) 

This adapter or peripheral has been tested, but is NOT supported under the specific 
configuration identified in the Base System Configurations Table in Section 2 of this 
document. 

NT 

This adapter or peripheral has not been tested under this operating system and is not 
supported under this operating system.   

ND 

This adapter or peripheral has not been tested under this operating system due to 
limitations in IHV driver availability, and is not suported under this operating system. 

SA (Similar Adapter)  

Referenced in the 
“Comments” column for 
each adapter that is 
supported but not tested. 

This adapter is supported, but not tested.  This adapter model has not been tested 
with this server board, but Intel will support it based on successful testing of a similar 
adapter from the same adapter family.  Intel has high confidence that this adapter will 
function correctly with the server board.  This adapter uses the same firmware and 
drivers, and has a nearly identical system interface to another adapter of the same 
family that has been successfully tested with this server board.  In addition, Intel has 
secured IHV commitment to support the similar adapters equally.  Customers should 
always test adapters as part of the final system configuration prior to deployment.  All 
installation guidelines for the tested adapter also apply to the similar adapter. 

IHVT (IHV Tested) 

This adapter or peripheral was tested according to Intel-approved guidelines and test 
procedures by the Independent Hardware Vendor (IHV) that manufactured this 
adapter or peripheral. Intel provides the same level of support for all the adapters or 
peripherals listed in this document, regardless of whether this adapter or peripheral 
was tested in an Intel lab or not.  IHV test reports remain the property of the IHV (Intel 
cannot provide copies of these reports).   

 

Any variations to the standard adapter installation process or to expected adapter functionality 
are documented in the Installation Guidelines section of this document.  If there are installation 
guidelines affecting a particular adapter and operating system combination, these are 
referenced in the following table.  If there are no installation guidelines noted in the following 
table, then the adapter installed and functioned as expected using manufacturer’s installation 
instructions or Intel’s best-known methods.
