Avid recommends the following slot locations for specific PCI cards in the
HP xw8000 workstation:
Slot 1 - This slot is not recommended for use as it is on the same segment as the integrated Gb
Ethernet and integrated FireWire controllers.
Slot 2 - This slot is not recommended for use as it is on the same segment as the integrated Gb
Ethernet and integrated FireWire controllers.
Slot 3 - If the integrated Gb Ethernet is used for connection to LANshare EX, a supported
FireWire Universal PCI card must be installed in this slot for connection to Avid Adrenaline or
Avid Mojo. Alternatively, and to reduce Ethernet CPU overhead, an Alacritech Gb Ethernet card
may be installed in this slot for connection to LANshare EX and one of the integrated FireWire
ports is used for connection to Avid Adrenaline or Avid Mojo. This slot may also be populated
with a second 1394 interface for connection to FireWire drives.
Slot 4 - This slot is not utilized.
Slot 5 - This slot can contain an ATTO 3300 or 3305 Fibre Channel card. The ATTO Fibre
Channel card can be used for local storage or for Avid Unity MediaNetwork.
SCSI Support
If you need SCSI support in the HP xw8000 system, you should use the two SCSI channels at the
rear of the system. The channels connect to a dual U320 SCSI controller on the system board. An
HP xw8000 expansion kit must be installed in order for these SCSI channels to be available
externally. You can use both SCSI and Fibre attached external storage in the HP xw8000 system
at the same time.
Fibre Channel Support
Avid provides support for local storage or Avid Unity MediaNetwork using the following Fibre
Channel host adapters in the HP xw8000 system:
♦ ATTO 2-Gb optical Fibre Channel (Model 3300, single channel)
♦ ATTO 2-Gb copper Fibre Channel (Model 3305, single channel)
Ethernet Support
Connection to Avid Unity LANshare EX with the HP xw8000 is supported using the integrated
Gb Ethernet controller provided that an add-in 1394 controller is installed for connection to the
Avid Adrenaline or Avid Mojo.
Documentation for connecting storage devices ships with the devices if they are purchased from
Avid. Striping information can be found on the Avid Knowledge Center.
