I don't know if the server will support a sound card but you can try. Looking at the docs here slot 1 and 2 are provided and controlled by the system board, slot 3 and 4 by cpu1 and 5, 6 by cpu2. So slot 1 is usable.

I tried the PCIe Sound Blaster Card in Slot 1, used the driver from the DVD that came with it and it worked.
Thanks. Now the patients at the Dental Surgery where the server is going to install can listen to Relaxing Rainforest music before they worked on...
