Dell recommends using Windows NT SP 6.0a or later for PowerEdge Cluster SE300  
and SL300 systems.  
NOTE: Both nodes must be configured with similar drivers (network interface control-  
ler [NIC], redundant array of independent disks [RAID] controller, and so on), utilities  
(Dell OpenManage™ Array Manager), firmware (PowerEdge expandable RAID control-  
ler [PERC] 3/DC), and the latest basic input/output system (BIOS) for each system.

You must install the PERC 3/DC in a 64-bit, 33-MHz or 32-bit, 33-MHz PCI slot. For  
your specific system, see the peripheral component interconnect (PCI) slot assign-  
ments in the following subsections. If you are using multiple PERC 3/DCs, Dell  
recommends that you install them on separate buses.

The following list provides PCI slot assignment information for buses, RAID control-  
lers, and NICs:  
PCI buses  
PCI bus 1: 64-bit, 66-MHz slot.  
PCI bus 2: 64-bit, 66-MHz slot.  
RAID controllers  
RAID controllers can be installed in any available PCI slot.  
If you use multiple RAID controllers and there are slots available, Dell recom-  
mends installing the RAID controllers on separate PCI buses to balance the  
load on the system.  
NICs  
You can install NICs in any available PCI slot.  
Dell recommends that Giganet cLAN adapters be installed in 64-bit slots.  
NOTE: To make sure that the small computer system interface (SCSI) or RAID control-  
ler attached to the boot drives initializes first, you might have to change the scan order  
of the PCI bus, if the BIOS supports this option, or change the order of the RAID, and  
NIC. Performing these tasks ensures that the Windows operating system numbers  
the boot drives in the proper sequence.

The following list provides PCI slot assignment information for buses, RAID control-  
lers, NICs, and a Dell OpenManage Remote Assistant Card (DRAC).  
PCI buses  
PCI bus 1: PCI slots 1 through 5 are 64-bit, 33-MHz.  
PCI bus 2: PCI slot 6 is 32-bit, 33-MHz.  
RAID controllers  
RAID controllers can be installed in any available PCI slot.  
If you use multiple RAID controllers and there are slots available, Dell recom-  
mends installing the RAID controllers on separate PCI buses to balance the  
load on the system.  
If you are not currently using a DRAC and do not plan to use one in the  
future, Dell recommends that you install one RAID controller in the 32-bit  
slot, even if it is a 64-bit RAID controller.  
NICs  
You can install NICs in any available PCI slot.  
Dell recommends that Giganet cLAN adapters be installed in 64-bit slots.  
DRAC  
If you are currently using a DRAC or plan to use one in the future, install it in  
PCI slot 6.  
NOTE: To make sure that the SCSI or RAID controller attached to the boot drives  
initializes first, you might have to change the scan order of the PCI bus, if the BIOS  
supports this option, or change the order of the RAID, NIC, and DRAC. Performing  
these tasks ensures that the Windows operating system numbers the boot drives in  
the proper sequence.

The following list provides PCI slot assignment information for the systems buses,  
RAID controllers, NICs, and DRAC.  
PCI buses  
PCI bus 1: PCI slots 1 through 3 are 32-bit, 33-MHz.  
RAID controllers  
RAID controllers can be installed in any available PCI slot.  
If you use multiple RAID controllers and there are slots available, Dell recom-  
mends installing the RAID controllers on separate PCI buses to balance the  
load on the system.  
NICs  
NICs can be installed in any available PCI slot. Dell recommends that Giganet  
cLAN adapters be installed in PCI slots 1 or 2.  
Dell recommends that Giganet cLAN adapters be installed in 64-bit slots.  
DRAC  
If you are currently using a DRAC or plan to use one in the future, install it in  
PCI slot 2.  
NOTES: If you plan to use a DRAC, one PCI slot is available for a PERC 3/DC RAID  
controller for shared storage.  
To make sure that the SCSI or RAID controller attached to the boot drives initializes  
first, you might have to change the scan order of the PCI bus, if the BIOS supports  
this option, or change the order of the RAID, NIC, and DRAC. Performing these tasks  
ensures that the Windows operating system numbers the boot drives in the proper  
sequence.

The following list provides PCI slot assignment information for buses, RAID control-  
lers, NICs, and a DRAC.  
PCI buses  
PCI bus 1: PCI slots 6 and 7 are 32-bit, 33-MHz.  
PCI bus 2: PCI slots 3, 4, and 5 are 64-bit, 33-MHz.  
PCI bus 3: PCI slots 1 and 2 are 64-bit, 66-MHz.  
RAID controllers  
RAID controllers can be installed in any available PCI slot.  
If you use multiple RAID controllers and there are slots available, Dell recom-  
mends installing the RAID controllers on separate PCI buses to balance the  
load on the system.  
NICs  
NICs can be installed in any available PCI slot. Dell recommends that Giganet  
cLAN adapters be installed in PCI slots 3, 4, 5 or 6.  
Dell recommends that Giganet cLAN adapters be installed in 64-bit slots.  
DRAC  
If you are currently using a DRAC or plan to use one in the future, install it in  
PCI slot 7.  
NOTE: To make sure that the SCSI or RAID controller attached to the boot drives  
initializes first, you might have to change the scan order of the PCI bus, if the BIOS  
supports this option, or change the order of the RAID, NIC, and DRAC. Performing  
these tasks ensures that the Windows operating system numbers the boot drives in  
the proper sequence.

mends installing the RAID controllers on separate PCI buses to balance the

If you are not currently using a DRAC and do not plan to use one in the  
future, Dell recommends that you install one RAID controller in the 32-bit  
slot, even if it is a 64-bit RAID controller.  
NICs  
You can install NICs in any available PCI slot.  
Dell recommends that Giganet cLAN adapters be installed in 64-bit slots.  
DRAC  
PCI slot 2 is dedicated to interface with the optional DRAC.

initializes first, you might have to change the scan order of the PCI bus, if the BIOS  
supports this option, or change the order of the RAID, NIC, and DRAC. Performing
