## Rules for I/O Slot Use by Certain Cards

Some optional I/O cards are restricted to specific I/O slots to meet system cooling requirements. Other I/O cards provide better performance when installed in particular slots. PCIe Slot Usage Rules for Certain I/O Cards lists these slot requirements and recommendations.

Note - This table lists only I/O cards that have specific slot or quantity restrictions or other requirements. It does not list I/O cards that are supported by the SPARC T3-1 server but are not subject to slot or quantity restrictions.
