*Note: The expansion card can be installed in servers in the BladeCenter S (8886). However, by doing so,
you lose the ability to connect to the BladeCenter S Disk Storage Modules (DSMs). The Fibre Channel
expansion card goes in the place of the SAS expansion card that is needed to connect to the DSMs.
This configuration also requires cabling between the chassis and the storage server and between the
storage server and expansion units. (The cable part numbers are not listed in Table 4.)
