Adding PCI Cards

1. PCI slots
The H8DM3-2 has six PCI expansion slots, which includes two PCI-Express x8 slots,
one PCI-Express x4 slot, one 64-bit 133 MHz PCI-X slot and two 64-bit 133/100 MHz
PCI-X slots. The 4021M-32R can support cards in all six slots of the serverboard.
2. PCI card installation
Before installing a PCI add-on card, make sure you install it into a slot that supports
the speed of the card (see step 1, above). After gaining access to the inside of the
server, determine which slot you wish to populate, then press down on the curved
section at the top of the blue tab for that slot. While pressing down, lift the tab to
unlock the shield. Insert the expansion card into the correct slot on the serverboard,
pushing down with your thumbs evenly on both sides of the card. Lock the card
into place by pressing down on the tab. Follow this procedure when adding a card
to other slots.
