Introduction Extensions and conversions
1.2 Extensions and conversions
Extension of the main memory
The four slots for the main memory are suitable for unbuffered PC2-533
(PC2-4200) DDR2 SDRAM memory modules. The organization in two memory
banks, 1 and 2, permits rapid memory access with two-way interleaving.
If the memory modules are populated in pairs, each pair must consist of
identical memory modules (2-way interleaved mode).
Additional accessible drive
One 5.25-inch slimline bay is available for accessible drives.
Additional SATA hard disk drive
A second bay is available for SATA hard disk drives.
Additional controllers in the PCI slots
The system board offers 2 x PCI-X (64 Bit / 100 MHz) or 1x PCI-Express x4 and
2 x PCI-X (64 Bit / 100 MHz) slots by a riser card.
RemoteView Service Board S2 LP
The RemoteView Service Board S2 LP (RSB S2 LP) is a PCI board with a
completely independent system, i.e. it has its own operating system with Web
server and SNMP agents and can optionally be equipped with an external
power supply. The RSB S2 LP permits remote diagnosis for system analysis,
remote system configuration and remote restart even in the event of operating
system failure or hardware faults. It has its own LAN connection and its own
COM port. All the functions of the RSB S2 LP are thus available either via a LAN
or modem.
