Pci Board - NEC Express5800/120Rd-2 Service Manual

7-38 Disassembly and Reassembly

PCI Board

The server has two "riser cards" on the system board that enables installation of PCI boards.
Three PCI boards can be installed on each riser card. (Up to six PCI boards can be installed in
total.)
Insert PCI boards for network extension and file device function extension into PCI board slots
in each riser card.
IMPORTANT:
The PCI board is extremely sensitive to static electricity. Make sure to
!
touch the metal frame of the server to discharge static electricity from
your body before handling the PCI board. Do not touch the PCI board
terminals or on-board parts by a bare hand or place the PCI board
directly on the desk. For static notes, see the section "Anti-static
Measures".
Some restrictions are imposed on the combination of PCI boards
!
which can be installed in the server. Contact your sales agent for
details.
A riser card is designed for installing only low-profile PCI boards or
!
full-height PCI boards. Before installing a PCI board, make sure of the
card specification.
NOTE: Some PCI boards use an on-board expanded ROM. See the
manual provided with the PCI board to determine whether expanded
ROM needs to be loaded. Use the BIOS setup utility "SETUP" for the
setting. For details, see Chapter 3.
