2.0 INSTALLING DAG 4.3S CARD
Introduction
The DAG 4.3S card can be installed in any free PCI-X 1.0 slot. It will
operate in 66, 100, and 133MHz PCI-X mode, however it will not operate
correctly in 32 or 64-bit PCI slots.
Higher speed slots are recommended for best performance.
The DAG 4.3S card should be the only device on the PCI-X bus if
possible as the card makes heavy use of PCI-X bus data transfer resources.
Although by default, the driver supports up to four DAG cards in one
system, there should not be more than one card on a single PCI-X bus due
to bandwidth limitations.
