HP Xw4200 - Workstation - 1 GB RAM User manual

HP Workstation xw4200
Every day, your work requirements increase with application
or multitasking demands taxing the limits of your PC or
workstation. The low-cost, high-performance HP Workstation
xw4200 combines revolutionary technologies from Intel®and
new graphics technology from leading graphics providers
with HP’s reliability, support, and 20+ years of workstation
technical and graphical expertise. Engineered to economically
meet your business demands, the HP xw4200 is a workstation
that will evolve with your ever-changing needs.
Features
•Get the latest workstation technology at a low price: Intel’s
925X next-generation high-end performance chipset for
Intel Pentium®4 processors delivers fast dual-channel DDR-2
533 MHz memory, reducing power consumption and
increasing data throughput. New Intel Pentium 4 processors
provide rich features, including 1 MB on-die L2 cache,
16 KB L1 data cache, and 13 new instructions.
•Accommodate application demands—now and in the
future: The HP xw4200 will support the Intel Extended
Memory 64 Technology when Intel makes it available,
enhancing the addressable memory space to 256 TB,
aiding in the design and manipulation of huge data sets or
models. This enhancement to Intel’s processor portfolio
should provide an easy transition path from 32-bit to 64-bit
computing, since 32-bit applications run at full performance
on an architecture that is also capable of supporting 64-bit
operating systems and applications.
•Enable advanced high-performance visualization: The
PCI Express (x16) graphics interface provides four times
the total peak bandwidth and two times the unidirectional
bandwidth of AGP graphics.
•Significantly increase bandwidth with two slots for PCI
Express (x1) I/O: The next generation of I/O interface
increases bandwidth to 250 MB/s (unidirectional) and
500 MB/s (peak). With a dedicated point-to-point
interface, cards plugging into the interface are not sharing
data bandwidth with other cards.
•Access data faster through greater bandwidth: Integrated
four-channel SATA controller with RAID provides faster
access to data through greater bandwidth (vs. parallel
ATA). The four channels allow you to attach up to four
hard drives within the system. The RAID-capable hard
drive controller provides either high-performance striped
(0) disk arrays or high-reliability mirrored (1) disk arrays.
•Easily convert, access, and service your workstation:
The versatile, convertible minitower allows a deskside or
desktop configuration, and the award-winning chassis
design makes it easier to service, upgrade, and maintain.
•Integrate numerous storage and I/O controllers: The
HP xw4200 offers high expandability with six bays and
seven slots, supporting up to four internal HDD, one or
two optical disks, optional floppy, one PCI Express (x16)
graphics slot, two PCI Express (x1) I/O slots, and four
legacy PCI slots.
•Share drives with your HP laptop: Slim form factor multi-
bay support allows you to share optical drives, hard
drives, and floppy drives between your HP notebook,
mobile workstation, PC, and your HP Workstation xw4200.
• Custom configure your workstation to your requirements:
HP Performance Tuning Framework will guide your system
setup, allowing a "custom" configuration that best matches
the workstation to user requirements. This customization
facilitates availability of the latest graphics cards and
drivers and removes some memory restraints. For more
