Discovered in the second beta of macOS Catalina, Apple has brought back the Expansion Slot Utility which existed for a time on the original 'cheese grater' Mac Pro line. The Expansion Slot Utility is used to manage PCI cards to help allocate bandwidth as the user sees fit rather than automatically. For example, users could allocate additional lanes towards a graphics card for more bandwidth.

The new 2019 model has eight total PCI-express slots for users to take advantage of. In total, the unit has four full-size, three double-wide, and a single half slot that comes pre-filled with Apple's own I/O board.

Apple debuted the new 2019 Mac Pro at WWDC earlier this year. AppleInsiderwent hands-on ahead of the launch later this year. The powerful machine is likely overkill for the average consumer but is targeted at Apple's high-end professional market that needs the power and customizability.
I installed a tango express PCIe card in my mac pro 2.66. The instructions said that the expansion slot utility would open when I started the computer. Nothing opened, and there is no expansion slot utility in the utilities folder. I'm using 10.4.8. Is this an obsolete utility for this version, or is it located somewhere else. The usb ports seem to work but the firewire ports don't work as I expected. (Only 1 port will work at a time and even one port won't work properly in conjunction with the built in ports. I'm using them with MOTU audio interfaces)
