Notes:
1. Power, cooling, removable-media drives, external ports, and advanced system management are
provided by the BladeCenter unit.
2. The operating system in the blade server must provide USB support for the blade server to recognize
and use USB media drives and devices. The BladeCenter unit uses USB for internal communications
with these devices.
The following table is a summary of the features and specifications of the blade server.
