1-2 Serverboard Features
At the heart of the SuperServer 6026T-3RF lies the X8DT3-F, a dual processor
serverboard based on the Intel IOH-36D + ICH10R chipset and designed to provide
maximum performance. Below are the main features of the X8DT3-F. (See Figure
1-1 for a block diagram of the chipset).
Processors
The X8DT3-F supports single or dual Intel® Xeon 5500 Series processors (with a
maximum TDP <100W) and future Intel Nehalem processor families (next generation
Intel Xeon® processor). Please refer to the serverboard description pages on our
web site for a complete listing of supported processors (www.supermicro.com).
Memory
The X8DT3-F has twelve 240-pin DIMM slots that can support up to 96 GB of
DDR3-1333/1066/800 registered ECC SDRAM or 24 GB of DDR3-1333/1066/800
unbuffered ECC SDRAM. The memory operates in an interleaved confi guration
and requires requires modules of the same size and speed to be installed two at a
time. See Chapter 5 for details.
Onboard SAS
An onboard LSI 1068E SAS controller in integrated into the X8DT3-F for an 8-port
SAS subsystem. The hot-swap SAS drives are connected to a backplane that pro-
vides power, bus termination and confi guration settings.
Note: The operating system you use must have RAID support to enable the hot-
swap capability and RAID function of the SAS drives. RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 are sup-
ported. Refer to the following ftp site for setup guidelines <ftp://ftp.supermicro.com/
driver/SAS/LSI/LSI_SAS_EmbMRAID_SWUG.pdf> and Supermicro's web site for
additional inmformation < http://www.supermicro.com/support/manuals/>.
Serial ATA
A Serial ATA controller is integrated into the ICH10R (South Bridge) portion of the
IOH-36D chipset to provide a six-port 3 Gb/s SATA subsystem, which is RAID 0, 1,
10 and 5 supported. The SATA drives are hot-swappable units.
Note: The operating system you use must have RAID support to enable the hot-
swap capability and RAID function of the SATA drives. RAID 5 requires the use
of an iButton.
