IBM System x3630 M4 User Manual

IBM System x3630 M4 (E5-2400) 24
The slot form factors with 2U risers (models without the rear HDD cage assembly) are as follows:
Slot 1: PCIe 3.0 x16 (x8-wired), optional PCIe 3.0 x16 (x16-wired); full-height, full-length

Slot 2: PCIe 3.0 x16 (x8-wired); full-height, half-length (not present if optional x16-wired slot 1 riser is

used)
Slot 3: PCIe 3.0 x16 (x8-wired), optional PCIe 3.0 x16 (x16-wired); low-profile, half-length (the second

processor is required to use this slot)
Slot 4: PCIe 3.0 x16 (x8-wired); low-profile, half-length (not present if optional x16-wired slot 3 riser is

used, the second processor is required to use this slot)
Slot 5: PCIe 3.0 x8 (x4-wired); dedicated slot for ServeRAID adapter; standard on hardware RAID

models, optional on software RAID models
Note: Standard models with software RAID (ServeRAID C105) ship with one 2U riser supplying slots 1
and 2 (slots 3, 4, and 5 are not present). Standard models with hardware RAID adapters (ServeRAID
M1115 or M5110) ship with two 2U risers supplying all five slots. See Table 13 for details.
The slot form factors with 1U risers (models with the rear HDD cage assembly) are as follows:
Slot 1: PCIe 3.0 x8 (x8-wired), optional PCIe 3.0 x16 (x16-wired); full-height, half-length

Slot 2: PCIe 3.0 x8 (x8-wired); low-profile, half-length (not present if an optional x16-wired slot 1 riser

is used)
Slot 3: PCIe 3.0 x8 (x4-wired), optional PCIe 3.0 x8 (x8-wired); dedicated slot for ServeRAID adapter

(x8-wired slot requires the second processor, x4-wired slot does not require the second processor)
Note: The 3.5" Hot Swap Cage Assembly, Rear, 2 x 3.5" option, part number 00D9034, ships with two 1U
risers supplying x8-wired slots 1 and 2 and x4-wired slot 3. See Table 14 for details.
The following two tables lists the I/O riser card options, the 2U riser options and the 1U riser options.
