Chapter 1: Introduction
Memory
The SBI-7126TG blade module has six 240-pin DIMM sockets that can support up to 96
GBECC Registered DDR3-1333/1066/800 SDRAM. Both interleaved and
non-interleaved memory are supported, so you may populate any number of DIMM
slots.
Please refer to the Supermicro web site for a list of supported memory
(
www.supermicro.com/products/superblade ). The detailed specifications for a blade
module will contain a link to a list of recommended memory sizes and manufacturers.
Details on installation of memory modules into the SBI-7126TG blade module are found
in
Chapter 3: "Setup and Installation" on page 3-1 .
Storage
The SBI-7126TG blade module does not contain any hard disk drives or drive carriers.
Density
A maximum of ten blade modules may be installed into a single blade enclosure. Each
blade enclosure is a 7U form factor, so a standard 42U rack may accommodate up to six
enclosures with sixty blade modules, or the equivalent of sixty 1U servers. With the
inclusion of six CMM modules, twelve Gigabit Ethernet switches and six InfiniBand
switches, this would occupy up to 84U space in a conventional 1U server configuration.
Figure 1-1 displays a view of a full rack with six blade enclosures in it, each with ten
blades to an enclosure.
