Four-socket upgradable / storage rich
This configuration allows a simple upgrade to eight-socket configurations in the future, while supports up to
24 drives and ten rear PCIe slots.
The four-socket upgradable / storage rich configurations only supports four processors with the following
requirements/capabilities:
• Only 8100 series processors are supported, and they must be configured in a ring topology.
• The upper compute tray is installed in the upper tray slot.
• All 12 fans are required to be installed.
• Up to 24 drives are supported.
Note:
This configuration allows a simple upgrade to 8-socket ones. See “Eight-socket storage rich” on page
18 for details about 8-socket configurations.
This configuration comes with four processors, requires at least two 1100/1600-watt PSUs, and supports up
to:
• 48 memory modules.
• Ten rear PCIe slots.
See the following tables for the location of the supported components.
