The notes contained in the server’s quickspecs throws more light. Click the following link to access the server’s quickspecs:

 

          http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/13247_div/13247_div.HTML

 

Click Configuration Information - Factory Integrated Models, scroll down to HP Storage Controllers under Step-2. Review the fourth note which reads as follows:

 

“To use the internal only PCI-e slot when purchasing the Hot Plug CTO Chassis, a HP Smart Array P410 controller must be selected.”

 

Thus, when the chassis selected is a Hot Plug CTO Chassis, the internal only PCI-e slot is meant for HP Smart Array P410 controller.

 

There is no specific mention about what could be installed in this slot in a Non-Hot Plug chassis. As this is an internal only PCI-e slot, it would at best be used to provide support to additional hard drives and for this model server, needs a hot plug chassis. Hence, it could be said that this is meant only for HP Smart Array P410 controller.

Remove the bracket from the Smart Array P410 controller and install the card in the slot. Connect the SAS/SATA cables connected below it to this controller.
