adapters in the 64-bit PCI-X slots 4, 5, and 6.
– PCI slot 1 is on the PCI Express x16 graphic bus.
– The 32-bit PCI slots 2 and 3 and the integrated ATI Radeon 7000M video
controller are on the 33 MHz PCI bus.
– The 64-bit PCI-X slot 4 is on the 133 MHz PCI-X bus, channel B.
– The 64-bit PCI-X slots 5 and 6 and the integrated Adaptec 7902 SCSI
controller are on the 100 MHz PCI-X bus, channel A. If an optional ServeRAID
6i+ adapter is installed, it overrides the standard functionality of the integrated
SCSI controller with RAID capabilities and forces PCI-X slots 5 and 6 to 66
MHz.
