PCI card slots

You can install two 12-inch PCI expansion cards in the two slots. (See “About PCI Cards for
the Server” in Chapter 5 of the

Xserve User’s Guide

for more information about card

requirements.)

RAM expansion slots

You can expand DDR RAM up to 2 GB, using the four slots. (See “Adding Memory” in
Chapter 5 of the

Xserve User’s Guide

for more information.)

Power supply

The auto-switching power supply detects the input voltage and adjusts for it. A thermal
control adjusts the speed of the power supply’s fan as needed.

Blowers

The blowers cool the server during operation. Sensors detect and report if a blower needs
service. Software adjusts the blower’s speed as necessary.

Chassis release latches

Press these latches to slide the server to its full length when in the rack, or to remove it
from the cover.

Serial number and Ethernet MAC address label

You must use the system’s serial number and the Ethernet MAC address when you install
and set up the server software. Write down these numbers and keep them in a safe place. A
duplicate of this label is on the back of the system, below the PCI card expansion slots.
