Using a balanced memory population approach ensures maximum memory interface
performance. A “balanced approach” means using an even number of DIMMs on the SSP8268
motherboard whenever possible.
The memory DIMMs on the motherboard connect directly to the CPU and at least one memory
module must be installed on the board.
SATA RAID OPERATION (WINDOWS O/S SETUP)
The Intel® C236 Platform Controller Hub (PCH) used on the motherboard features Intel® Rapid
Storage Technology (Intel® RST) and requires unique drivers.
BIOS
The SSP8268 features the Aptio® BIOS from American Megatrends, Inc. (AMI) with a ROM-resident
setup utility called the Aptio Text Setup Environment or TSE.
OPERATING SYSTEMS
Trenton Systems has successfully tested the SSP8268 motherboard with a wide variety of
contemporary operating systems including Linux (Red Hat RHEL, Centos and SUSE), Windows®
8.1, Windows® 10, Windows® 2012 Server, and Windows® 2016 Server.
