Recognizing the typical insignificance of the performance variance

between the “Fan-Out” and “Daisy-Chaining” configurations, the primary

could be the number of available slots on the computer motherboard, or

a lack of desk or rack space.

added to the "end" of the PCI bus hierarchy, which adds "depth" to the

PCI Local Bus by increasing the number of PCI Local Bus levels active

in the system configuration.
