Use the PowerEdge R660 server with riser configuration 0 that has 3 x 16 Gen 4 slots. The following figure shows the slot allocation for the server:
Figure 3. PowerEdge R660 management server - slot allocation
The LAN On Motherboard port 1 (LOM 1), named man0, is connected to the 1 GbE management network. The LOM port 2 (LOM2), named man2, and the iDRAC dedicated port are connected to an external management network to access the NG-Stor solution. Slots 1 and 3, used for the CX7 NDR200 adapters, are connected to the high-speed network switches. Slot 2 is used for an optional serial port card. If CX7 full NDR adapters are needed, a riser configuration 2 is required (the middle slot is Gen 4, and the other two slots are Gen5).
