Server Description
1
Your system supports symmetrical multiprocessing (SMP) and a variety of
operating systems. The server comes with both PCI and ISA buses, one
narrow and two wide SCSI channels, and onboard video. The server board
set consists of the following:
•
System board with seven PCI expansion slots, three ISA expansion
slots, and several embedded controller devices (PCI video, Dual Ultra
SCSI, Narrow SCSI, and IDE)
•
One or two Pentium

II processors
•
Memory module with either eight 3.3 V EDO DIMM sockets for up to
1 GB of memory, or four SDRAM DIMM sockets for 512 MB of memory
•
RPX module with one SIMM
†
socket for RAID applications
The chassis contains a 3.5-inch diskette drive, a CD-ROM drive, and,
depending on the system configuration, up to three 360 watt power
supplies. Three 5.25-inch peripheral bays can house tape back-up drives,
CD-ROM drives, and other mass storage devices. Any two adjacent
5.25-inch bays can be converted into a single full-height bay. The two
3.5-inch hot-docking peripheral bays, when fully configured with 10 hard
disk drives, provide over 40 GB of storage. The bays allow hot-swapping
drives without shutting down the system.
