PCI Network Card for Proliant ML310 G5

[mikej101]

Hi All,

Trying to figure out what sort of card fits in the slots on MoBo. It appears that the slots are smaller than PCI ? I'm puzzled.

Anyone got any advice !

Cheers Mike

They are PCI Express slots (also known as PCIe). They are not physically compatible with regular PCI nor PCI-X, sorry.

Wikipedia has a good set of basic information on PCIe:
