Working with adapters

You can install up to five peripheral component interconnect
(PCI) adapters in the expansion connectors, called slots, on
the system board of the server.
The server comes with an integrated video controller, which
is a component on the system board. When you install a
video adapter, the server BIOS automatically disables the
integrated video controller.
