5-7 Adding PCI Cards
1. 64-bit PCI slots:
The 6021F system board has two 64-bit, 33/66 MHz and four 64-bit, 33
MHz 5V PCI slots that require low profile PCI cards to fit inside the
Supermicro SC822 chassis - see figures 5-6a and 5-6b.
2. 64-bit PCI card installation:
Before installing a PCI add-on card, make sure you choose the correct
low profile card for the type of PCI card you are installing (see step 1,
above). Begin by removing the I/O shield for the PCI slot. Insert the PCI
card into the PCI slot on the motherboard, pushing down with your
thumbs evenly on both sides of the card. Finish by using a screw to
secure the top of the card shield to the chassis. The I/O shield protects
the motherboard and its components from EMI (electromagnetic interfer-
ence) and aids in proper ventilation, so make sure there is always a
shield covering each slot.
