400-MHz Intel® IOP80219

Memory

256 MB 32-bit DDR SDRAM

Flash

32-MB NOR Flash

Hard Drive

Supports up to four 3.5-in SATA-I hard drives from 80 GB to 500 GB

NOTe:

The total amount of storage space cannot exceed 2 terabytes (at the date of publica-

tion).

Network

Two Intel® gigabit LAN port interface

USB

Two USB 2.0 connectors

200-W power supply

Operating Temperature

10º C to 35º C (50º F to 95º F)

TeChNICAl NOTe:

If the temperature of the

processor reaches or exceeds 85º C (185º F) or if

the temperature of any of the backplane tempera-

ture sensors reaches or exceeds 55º C (131º F),

the Ethernet Disk RAID shuts down automati-

cally. If the temperature of any of the backplane

temperature sensors reaches or exceeds 42º C

(107.6º F), the fan will run at full speed. If, subse-
