This server has the following features.
■
High Reliability
●
Advanced Memory Protection Functions
The server supports the Chipkill function using PC2-3200-compliant memory (DDR2 400MHz
SDRAM). Further, the server supports the spare memory function, the memory mirroring function, and
the memory RAID function, one of which can be selectively configured for the whole memory. These
functions enable data recovery in the event of a memory error.
●
Storage System Configuration
The server supports onbaord SCSI array controller, so that the array system (RAID 1/5/10) can be
configured.
●
Redundant Function
The memory, internal hard disk unit, power supply units, and system fans support the redundant
function. If power supply unit or system fan fails, it can be replaced without stopping the system.
For the memory, this hot-plug function is supported only in the mirror configuration and memory RAID
configuration.
For the disk array configuration, a failed hard disk unit in a storage system can be replaced or repaired
without turning off the server and peripheral devices (a hot-plug is supported).
●
Hardware and Software Designed for Data Security
Locks on the drive covers and the password setting in the BIOS Setup Utility protect hardware and data
assets in the server against theft, ensuring data security.
●
Proactive Fan Function
When a fan fails or the ambient temperature rises, the system fan speed is increased automatically to
avoid increase in temperature in the server, ensuring stable server operation.
●
Hot-swappable PCI Slots
The PCI slots 1 through 5 are hot-swappable PCI slots. If an expansion card has a failure, you can
replace the failed expansion card without turning off this server and its peripheral devices. (Only when
using Windows Server 2003)
