Note – Before installing or replacing a PCI card, refer to the following guidelines:
If you are using the onboard NICs and one PCI card, install the PCI card in the right
(full-length) slot.
If you are using the onboard NICs, and two PCI cards, install the faster PCI card in
the right (full-length) slot, and the slower card in the left (half-length) slot.
If you are not using the onboard NICs, install a half-length card in the left (half-
length) slot and a full-length card in the right (full-length) slot.
Caution – Do not use +5 V PCI cards or you may cause damage to the
motherboard. Use only +3 V PCI cards in your Sun Fire V20z server.
