4.4.1. Mac Pro – Expansion Slot Utility settings
This section applies exclusively to the Apple Mac Pro, this section can
be skipped for all other computers.
The Mac Pro (Intel Xeon-based) will detect changes in the PCI-e slot
configuration, it will automatically launch the Expansion Slot Utility
where you can make performance adjustments for the various PCI-e
slots. The utility can be manually started also, it can be found at: Under my Mac
Pro: /System/Library/CoreServices.
Ensure there is at least a x4 speed assignment for the slot where the RAID
Controller is installed (x8 is preferred), making sure also that your video
capture/playback card and video display card also get a sufficient x value.
Example below is a good balance, it shows the RAID Controller in slot 4, a
popular video capture card in slot 3, a eSATA adapter in slot 2, and the standard
graphic card in slot 1.
