There are two kinds of PCI cards - those with a
single indentation
in the gold connector area on the card and those with two
indentations. Cards with a single indentation required 5 volts
(IIRC) and those with 2 indentations did not. A PCI card with two
indentations only used 3.3 volts <snip>
Nope, the cards with two indentations run with both 5V or 3.3V. The
ones with one indentation have the voltage hard-coded by the position
(back or front) and don't run with the other voltage at all. Even if
you break out the saw to make them fit...
