BX620 S5 Options Guide 5
1 Introduction
The PRIMERGYBX620 S5 dual-socket server blade represents the fifth
generation of highly compact and powerful BX620 server blades. It offers
extension options for latest-generation dual-core and quad-core processors,
DDR3 memory modules with a powerful 3-channel architecture per CPU,
I/O daughter cards, as well as modular hard disk controllers and 2.5-inch SAS,
SATA or SSD hard disks.
The three available storage module variants allow SAS and SATA hard disk
configurations for different usage scenarios. The configuration options range
from the low-cost platform with SATA hard disks up to the high-end platform with
SAS hard disks and an SAS storage module with RAID5 and Cache/iTBBU.
As an option, the communications interfaces can be extended by two Fibre
Channel channels or two additional Ethernet channels.
1.1 Concept and target groups of this manual
This options guide shows you how to expand and upgrade your server.
VCAUTION!
The actions described in this manual should only be carried out by
technical specialists.
IThe installation and removal of the hot-plug components is described in
the operating manual supplied with the server.

Introduction Extensions and upgrades
1.3 Extensions and upgrades
Second processor
If only one processor is installed in your server blade, you can upgrade it to
include a second one. You may only use processors of the same type in the
server blade. The second processor must have the same clock frequency as the
first.
Upgrading the memory
The server blade offers 6 DDR3 DIMM slots per CPU (organized in 2 banks and
3 channels). All 12 main memory slots support RDIMMs (registered DIMMs)
and UDIMMs (unbuffered DIMMs). Only memory modules of the same capacity
can be installed on the same memory bank.
This allows a maximum memory configuration of 24 GB with UDIMMs (capac-
ities: 1 GB and 2 GB) and 96 GB with RDIMMs (capacities: 2 GB, 4 GB and
8GB).
IA combination of both module types is not allowed.
Optional I/O module
The server blade has one slot for an extension board (daughter card) which can
be used to provide two Fibre Channel connections or two additional Ethernet
connections. The following I/O modules are available:
– 4-Gbit Fibre Channel daughter card (PCIe)
– 1-Gbit Ethernet daughter card (PCIe)
– 10-Gbit Ethernet daughter card (PCIe)
To be able to use the additional I/O functionality, at least one FC I/O blade or an
Ethernet I/O blade must be installed in slots NET3 and/or NET4 of the BX600
S3 basic unit. For more information, see the operating manual for your basic
unit.
Storage modules
The hard disks are controlled by a storage module (controller) which can be
plugged into the motherboard and which may also have additional functions.
The following variants can be used: SAS, SAS/RAID and SAS/PCIe. The PCIe
variant allows the installation of low-profile modules.

Storage modules can be installed/replaced via the front of the server blade
without having to remove the housing cover. However, they cannot be replaced
while the system is running (non-hot-plug) - the server blade must be switched
off.
