The following figures show the typical system board block diagram for 4-DIMM and 6-DIMM Z400 workstations. For example, x16 (8) means that the expansion slot is mechanically a x16 length connector, with eight PCIe lanes connected. 2 Chapter 1 Product overview ENWW The number in parentheses lists the number of the slot. Figure 1-1 4-DIMM system board block diagram NOTE: The x1, x4, x8, and x16 designators describe the mechanical length of electrical PCIe lanes routed to the expansion slot. System board architecture This section describes the workstation system architecture.
