PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) Slots
The PCI slots allow you to insert the expansion cards
to meet your needs. When adding or removing
expansion cards, make sure that you unplug the
power supply first. Meanwhile, read the documentation for the expansion card to make any
necessary hardware or software settings for the expansion card, such as jumpers, switches or
BIOS configuration.
