Expansion Slots
The PRIORIS HX Server contains 12 expansion board slots. Six of the slots support industry-standard 32-bit
EISA expansion boards. The remaining six expansion slots support 32-bit PCI local bus expansion boards.
This enables the server to deliver maximum performance by using a faster data path for greater computing
speed. It also improves the expandability of the server.
NOTE When installing expansion boards, always read the accompanying documentation
for server memory address and IRQ requirements. Compare that information to the
server memory and IRQ requirements in the appropriate CPU module
specifications booklet. If conflicts are detected, the expansion board must
configured to alternate settings.
