Oracle ZFS Storage ZS11-2 PCIe Card Configuration

The nine PCIe slots are located inside the controller at the back. As viewed from the back of the controller, the slots are divided into two groups, a group of three to the left of the built-in network ports and rear indicators, and a group of six to the right side of the network ports and indicators. The PCIe slots are designated from left to right (back view) with the three slots on the left side designated as PCIe Slot 1 to PCIe Slot 3, and the six slots on the right side designated as PCIe Slot 4 to PCIe Slot 9.
