Expansion Slots
The PRIORIS XL Server contains eight slots for installing up to seven EISA or PCI expansion boards.
Five of the slots support industry-standard 32-bit EISA expansion boards. The remaining three expansion
slots support 32-bit PCI local bus expansion boards. This enables the server to deliver maximum
performance by using a faster data path for greater computing speed. It also improves the expandability of
the server.
NOTE
When installing expansion boards, always read the accompanying documentation for
server memory address and IRQ requirements. Compare that information to the
server memory and IRQ requirements in the appropriate CPU module specifications
booklet. If conflicts are detected, you must configure the expansion board to alternate
settings.
