Chapter 7: Adding and removing adapter cards and drives
Your computer’s system unit has six drive bays and can
hold up to six drives. It also has seven adapter card slots
and eight adapter card connectors and can hold up to
seven adapter cards. You can purchase a drive to install
in any empty bay or an adapter card to install in any
empty slot.
You can install industry standard architecture (ISA)
advanced technology (AT) adapter cards, and peripheral
component interconnect (PCI) adapter cards. You can
install an AT adapter card in any AT adapter card
connector. You can install a PCI adapter card in any PCI
adapter card connector.
Diskette drives use the standard diskette advanced
technology (AT) interface. Hard disks use an integrated
drive electronics (IDE) AT interface. Your computer
supports the American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) standard for AT attachment disk drives.
