Dell E33S001 User Manual

Expansion cards and expansion card riser
An expansion card in the system is an add-on card that can be inserted into an expansion slot on the system board or riser card to
add enhanced functionality to the
system through the expansion bus.
NOTE: A System Event Log (SEL) event is logged if an expansion card riser is unsupported or missing. It does not
prevent your system from turning on and no BIOS POST message or F1/F2 pause is displayed.
NOTE: The expansion card riser is optional for systems with four hard drives.
