Expansion Card and Expansion-Card Riser
Expansion Card Installation Guidelines
Your system supports one x16 Gen2 PCIe expansion card installed in the slot 1
connector on the expansion-card riser.
CAUTION: Expansion card can only be installed in the slots on the expansion-
card riser. Do not attempt to install expansion cards directly into the riser
connector on the system board.
• The expansion slot supports full-height, half-length cards.
• The expansion-card slot is not hot-swappable.
• PCI Express Generation 2 expansion card is supported in the slot.
CAUTION: To ensure proper cooling, only one of the two expansion cards can
have a power consumption of greater than 15 W (up to 25 W maximum), not
including the integrated storage controller.
