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 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 notation
is 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.
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.
Testing of adapters cards normally is performed with unused add-in adapters
and onboard controller expansion ROMs disabled in BIOS Setup. Intel
recommends that customers disable the option ROM for add-in controllers
and/or the on-board controllers when not booting from the controller or needing
to use its built in utilities.
Note
: When using some external SCSI devices it may be necessary to power the system on
before powering on the external device.
