Hi, I was wondering if anybody knows whether or not a PCIe x1 -> x16 adapter cable will work in any PCIe slot.  Or does it only work for x1 slots?  Thanks in advance!

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

works in any slot, but some motherboards will require you to short the two presence pins together if you're going to put a x1 cable into a x16 slot
