5-6 Adding PCI Cards
1. PCI slots
The X6DH3-G2 has two PCI-Express x8 slots, one 64-bit 133 MHz PCI-X slot, two
64-bit 100 MHz PCI-X slots and one 32-bit PCI slot. The SC743T-R760 chassis
accommodates up to six standard size PCI cards. PCI cards are installed directly
to the serverboard (riser cards are not needed).
2. PCI card installation
Before installing a PCI add-on card, make sure you install it into a slot that supports
the speed of the card (see step 1, above). Begin by removing the screw from the
PCI slot shield that corresponds to the slot you wish to populate. Insert the expan-
sion card into the correct slot on the serverboard, pushing down with your thumbs
evenly on both sides of the card. Finish by securing the card to the chassis with
the same screw you removed from the PCI slot shield. Follow this procedure when
adding a card to other slots.
