Abstract: PC SERVER 330: MALFUNCTIONS w/ full length ADAPTER in SLOT 6
TEXT:
The PC Server 330 Type 8640 model PB0, PM0, PT0, 11Y
should not be configured with a full-length PCI Adapter
in System Slot 6 (closest to the Power Supply).
If a full-length PCI Adapter IS configured in System Slot 6,
there is risk of one end of the Adapter touching the DASD Cage which
may result in component leads / pins of the Adapter shorting to Chassis
ground via the DASD Cage causing malfunctions of the Adapter.
Half Length Adapters are not exposed to this risk therefore preferred in Slot 6.
No problems exist with full-length PCI Adapters fitting into the other 5 System Slots.
