PCI Sub-system

The primary I/O buses support one Super Slot connector, which supports one PCI riser
assembly that supports two PCI slots: one low-profile PCI Express* x8, and either a mid-height
PCI-X* 133, or one low-profile PCI Express*x4 and one mid-height PCI Express x4. The PCI
bus complies with the PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.3. The PCI-X bus complies with
PCI-X Local BUS Specification, Revision 2.0, the PCI Express ports comply with the PCI
Express Base Specification, Revision 1.0a. PCI 32 supports the VGA ATI* ES1000 video
controller.

3.2.1.1 PXA: 64-bit, 133MHz PCI Subsystem
One 64-bit PCI-X* bus segment is directed through the 6321ESB ICH6. This PCI-X segment,
PXA, supports up to three PCI add-in cards on the full-height riser card.
3.2.1.2 PE2: One x4 PCI Express* Bus Segment
One x4 PCI Express* bus segment is directed through the 6321ESB. This PCI Express
segment, PE2, supports one x8 PCI Express segment to the proprietary I/O module mezzanine
connector.
3.2.1.3 PCI Riser Slot
The primary I/O buses for this server board supports one Super Slot connector which supports
one PCI riser assembly supporting two PCI slots:
One low-profile PCI Express* x8 and one mid-height PCI-X* 133.
Or one low-profile PCI Express*x4 and one mid-height PCI Express* x4.

Serial ATA Support

®
The Intel 6321ESB I/O Controller Hub has an integrated Serial ATA (SATA) controller that
supports independent DMA operation on six ports and supports data transfer rates of up to
3.0 Gb/s. The six SATA ports on the server board are numbered SATA-0 thru SATA-5. The
SATA ports can be enabled/disabled and/or configured through the BIOS Setup Utility.

disk bottlenecks by taking advantage of the dual independent DMA engines that each SATA
port offers.
