The board doesn’t come with any extra on it. There is one used but it doesn’t boot without that card. Not really sure what it does.
It’s a Dell Poweredge R410 Server: looks like this: https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/er4AAOSwNDVfyTuN/s-l1600.jpg
Oh yeah it def had the SAS Backplane wires, I’d switched to using the SATA on board since it doesn’t have the same HD capacity limits. I think it was a max of 2tb with the backplane and I’m using a couple of 10tbs. Maybe their is some weird bios that requires it to be on board?

Do you mean the card with the SODIMM next to the CPU? that is a raid card, and it looks like it is responsible for the front drive bays.
