System Features
The major hardware and software features of your system include:
• Two Dual-Core or Quad-Core Intel
®
Xeon
®
5400 Series and 5200 Series
processors.
• Support for symmetric multiprocessing (SMP), which is available on
systems with two Intel Xeon processors. SMP greatly improves overall
system performance by dividing processor operations between
independent processors. To take advantage of this feature, you must use an
operating system that supports multiprocessing.
NOTE: If you decide to upgrade your system by installing a second processor,
you must order the processor upgrade kits from Dell. Not all versions of the
Intel Xeon processor will work properly as additional processors. The
upgrade kit from Dell contains the correct version of the processor, heat sink,
and fan as well as the instructions for performing the upgrade.
• A minimum of 4 GB of 667-MHz, Fully Buffered DIMMs (FBD),
upgradable to a maximum of 16 GB by installing combinations of 1-GB or
2-GB memory modules in the eight memory module sockets on the system
board.
• The system also features redundant memory, which provides memory
sparing or memory mirroring. Either feature is available if eight identical
memory modules are installed.
• Support for up to four 3.5-inch internal hot-pluggable SATA hard drives.
• A slim-line SATA DVD, or combination CD-RW/DVD drive.
NOTE: DVD devices are data only.
• A chassis intrusion switch that signals the appropriate systems
management software if the top cover is opened.
• Baseboard Management Control (BMC) power monitoring monitors
current, voltage, and power utilization in the system.
• Up to two hot-pluggable, 750-W power supplies in an optional 1 + 1
redundant configuration.
• Four hot-pluggable system cooling fans.

6Getting Started With Your System
The system board includes the following features:
• One of the following left riser card options:
– A left riser card that has one full-length PCIe x8 lane slot and one
full-length PCIe x4 lane slot.
OR
– A left riser card that has two full-length PCI-X 3.3-V, 64-bit,133-MHz
slots on separate PCI-X buses (capable of throttling back to support
legacy PCI add-in cards).
• A center riser card that has one half-length PCIe x8 lane slot.
• Dedicated slot for an integrated SAS host bus adapter. The internal
channel supports up to four 3.5-inch SATA hard drives.
NOTE: System boot is not supported from an external device attached to a
SAS or SCSI adapter.
• Two integrated Gigabit Ethernet NICs, capable of supporting 10-Mbps,
100-Mbps, and 1000-Mbps data rates.
• Optional Intel quad-port Gigabit Ethernet NIC, 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, and
1000-Mbps data rates, and iSCSI remote boot.
• Support for 10-Gb Ethernet cards.
• One internal USB 2.0-compliant connector supporting bootable USB flash
drive or USB memory key.
• Four USB 2.0-compliant connectors (two on the front and two on the back)
capable of supporting a diskette drive, CD-ROM drive, keyboard, mouse,
or USB flash drive.
• Optional remote access controller (RAC) for remote systems management.
• An integrated VGA-compatible video subsystem with an ATI ES1000, 33-MHz
PCI video controller. This video subsystem contains 16 MB of DDR SDRAM
video memory (nonupgradable). Maximum resolution is 1600 x 1200 with
64 K colors; true-color graphics are supported in the following resolutions:
640 x 480, 800 x 600, 1024 x 768, 1152 x 864, and 1280 x 1024. When the
optional RAC is installed, the video resolution is 1280 X 1024.
• Systems management circuitry that monitors operation of the system fans as
well as critical system voltages and temperatures. The systems management
circuitry works in conjunction with the systems management software.

Getting Started With Your System 7
• Standard baseboard management controller with serial access.
• Back-panel connectors include one serial, one video, two USB, and two
NIC connectors.
• Front-panel connectors include a video and two USB connectors.
• Front-panel 1x5 LCD for system ID and error messaging.
• System ID button on the front and back panels.
For more information about specific features, see "Technical Specifications"
on page 12.
Supported Operating Systems
