To identify theexpansion slots see Figure 6-1.• The expansion slots support one full-length, and four half-length cards.• The expansion-card slot is not hot-swappable.CAUTION: To ensure proper cooling, only one of the two expansion cardscan have a power consumption of greater than 15 W (up to 25 W maximum),not including the integrated storage controller.• Table 3-2 provides a guide for installing expansion cards to ensure propercooling and mechanical fit. The expansion cards with the highest priorityshould be installed first using the slot priority indicated. All otherexpansion cards should be installed in card priority and slot priority order.
