Installing and Removing a PCI Add-in Card

Peripherals and add-in cards are not included in your system and must be purchased separately. The
riser connector at the center of the chassis supports a single full-height add-in card or a single low
profile PCI add-in card. A low-profile add-in card that is to be installed in the full-height riser
connector must be equipped with a standard full-height PCI mounting bracket.
