Add-in Board Considerations
The next few procedures tell how to remove and install slot covers and add-
in boards. As an aid to installing boards in your system, this section
describes the arrangement and numbering conventions for the slot
connectors on the system board.
ISA-compatible add-in boards can be installed in any of the system board
ISA slots. PCI-compatible add-in boards can be installed in any of the PCI
slots.

! CAUTIONS
Do not overload the system board by installing add-in
boards that draw excessive current. The system is designed
to provide 2 A (average) of +5 V power for each board in the
system. The total +5 V current draw in a fully-loaded
system (all add-in board slots filled) must not exceed 14 A.
Add-in boards can be extremely sensitive to ESD and always
require careful handling. Hold the board by the edges only;
do not touch the electronic components or gold connectors.
After removing a board from its protective wrapper or from
the system, place it flat on a grounded, static-free surface,
component-side up. Do not slide the board over any
surface.
