A slot, or expansion slot, allows components to be attached to a system using connection pinholes. The slot also provides a place to fit an expansion adapter or card that provides some specialized capability, such as remote access to a server, storage device control, or network connectivity.
Slot ID | Silk screen name printed on the system board next to the slot; alphanumeric text uniquely identifies each slot in the system. |
Adapter | The name and/or type of the card that fits into the slot; for example, a storage array controller, small computer system interface (SCSI) adapters, host bus adapters (HBA). |
Data Bus Width | Width, in bits, of the information pathway between the components of a system. Data bus width range is 16 to 64 bits. |
To view information on an adapter card that occupies a particular slot, see "Adapter."
