Processor The server board accommodates one or two Intel Pentium III processors up to 1.26 GHz with 512k cache. Memory The system board contains six 168-pin DIMM slots each supporting 72-bit ECC (64-bit main memory plus ECC) registered SDRAM DIMMs (PC-133 compatible). You may install a minimum of 256 MB (128 MB x 2) and as much as 6 GB.
SCSI Controller † The server board includes an embedded Adaptec AIC-7899W SCSI controller providing dual Ultra160 Low Voltage Differential (LVD) SCSI channels. The SCSI bus is terminated on the server board with active terminators that cannot be disabled. The onboard device must always be at one end of the bus. The device at the other end of the cable is terminated with the active terminator on the SCSI cable installed in the system.
Network Teaming Features NOTE Using both on-board NICs in a team does not allow the use of NIC 1 for server management access. To support both network teaming features and server management features, a third NIC must be added and teamed to NIC 2.
Preferred Primary Adapter With multiple adapters installed, you can specify one as the Preferred Primary adapter. For example if you have a server with a Gigabit LAN as the primary adapter and a 10/100 Base TX LAN adapter as the secondary, you could configure the Gigabit LAN server adapter to be the preferred primary.
RJ45 Serial Port The rear RJ45 serial port is a fully functional COM port that supports any standard serial device and provides support for serial concentrators, which typically support RJ45 serial connectors. For server applications that use a serial concentrator to access the server management features of the baseboard, a standard 8-pin CAT-5 cable from the serial concentrator is plugged directly into the rear RJ45 serial port.
Page 25
ACPI The server board supports the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) as defined by the ACPI 1.0 and PC97 specifications. An ACPI aware operating system can put the system into a state where the hard drives spin down, the system fans stop, and all processing is halted. However, the power supply will still be on and the processors will still be dissipating some power, so the power supply fans will still run.
