1.4.7 Hardware RAID
The PRIMEQUEST 2000 series supports hardware RAID. The hardware RAID has a dedicated RAID
controller chip and firmware. It can independently control an array by disconnecting the hard disk where
error had occurred, and connecting a spare disk or new normal hard disk.
The RAID levels supported by the hardware RAID are RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 1E, RAID 10,
RAID 50, and RAID 60.
In SAS RAID controller card, a dedicated super-capacitor can be connected. The Write performance of RAID
5 and RAID 6 can be improved by enabling the Write Back Cache.
The SAS RAID controller card necessary for the hardware RAID should be mounted in the SB and DU.
Below table shows the number of HDD/SSD that is connected to a SAS RAID controller card in the DU and
shows
The number of HDD / SSD that can be mounted for each SAS RAID controller card in the DU is listed in the
table below.

When two SAS RAID controller cards are installed in a DU, there would be up to two HDDs connected to a
SAS RAID controller card.
Activation of HDD/SSD can be increased even when using a hardware RAID.

1.4.8 PCI Hot Plug Function
All PCI Express slots in the PCI_Box of the PRIMEQUEST 2000 series support the PCI hot plug function.
This function is a technology that enables extraction or insertion of a PCI card during system operation.
Any PCI Express Slots in the IOU_1GbE and the IOU_10GbE do not support the PCI hot plug function.
1.4.9 Security and Encryption Function
The following security/ encryption function s are supported in the PRIMEQUEST 2000 series.
-
Advanced Encryption Standard New Instructions (AES-NI)
-
Digital Random Number Generator (DRNG)
-
Supervisor Mode Execution Protection (SMEP)
For details on the security functions related to TPM related security, see ‘
1.4.10 Trusted Platform Module
1.4.10 Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is supported in the PRIMEQUEST 2000 series. PRIMEQUEST
2400E3/2800E3/2800B3 supports TPM1.2 and TPM2.0. PRIMEQUEST
2400E2/2800E2/2800B2/2400E/2800E/2800B supports TPM1.2.
Remarks
To use TPM, System Boards with TPM is required to be purchased.
Reserved SB function cannot be used if TPM function is enabled. The TPM is a security chip with the
following functions.
-
Data (storage) encryption processing function
-
Secret key storage function
-
Platform certification
The TPM is enabled by UEFI to enable its function.
