This section describes the major hardware and software features of your
system. It also provides information about other documents you may need
when setting up your system and how to obtain technical assistance.
• Two dual-core or quad-core AMD Opteron™ processors.
• A minimum of 2 GB single- or dual-ranked 667-MHz DDR2 (PC2-5300)
memory modules (installed in two sets of pairs). Memory is upgradable to
a maximum of 128 GB by installing combinations of 512-MB, 1-GB, 2-GB,
4-GB, or 8-GB memory modules in the 16 memory module sockets
(eight per CPU) on the system board.
