I have a question about PCI 2 MiniPCI adapter with 4/8 minipci slots.

Can one PCI slot deliver enough power to 4/8 miniPCI cm9 cards?

I saw people use this but Im a little afraid that it can be a problem sometimes.

we did a test with 4 such (8 port) cards in one PC and it worked ok

What about IRQ-s, did every card got its own IRQ, have you tested bandwidth with that setup?

Please, is anyone using this in a real environment with success. What about IRQ’s what about bandwidth with these pci to minipci adaptors?

That does not answer my question. I dont plan putting sr5 or any high power cards. I plan putting r52 cards. Cm9 cards. I asked about IRQs and possibille power issues.
