Serverboard Features

At the heart of the AS1021M-T2R lies the H8DMR-i2, a dual processor serverboard
based on nVidia's MCP55 Pro chipset. Below are the main features of the H8DMR-
i2 (see Figure 1-1 for a block diagram of the chipset).
Processors
The H8DMR-i2 supports single or dual AMD Socket F type processors. Please
refer to the serverboard description pages on our web site for a complete listing of
supported processors.
Memory
The H8DMR-i2 has eight 240-pin DIMM sockets that can support up to 16 GB of
registered ECC DDR2-667/533 or 32 GB of registered ECC DDR2-400 SDRAM.
The memory may be installed to provide an interleaved confi guration, which requires
modules of the same size and speed to be installed in pairs. Please refer to the
Installing Memory section for details.
Serial ATA
An on-chip SATA controller is integrated into the H8DMR-i2 to provide a six-port,
3 Gb/sec Serial ATA subsystem, which is RAID 0, 1 and 0+ 1 supported. The
SATA drives are hot-swappable units. Note: The operating system you use must
have RAID support to enable the hot-swap capability and RAID function of the
Serial ATA drives.
PCI Expansion Slots
The H8DMR-i2 has two Universal PCI slots, each of which support either one x8
PCI-Express slots or one PCI-X 133/100 MHz slot. One standard size PCI-X or
PCI-Express x8 add-on card and one low profi le PCI-X add-on card (all with riser
cards) may be used with the server.
Onboard Controllers/Ports
One fl oppy drive controller one onboard ATA/100 controller are provided to support
up to two IDE hard drives or ATAPI devices. The color-coded I/O ports include one
COM port, a VGA (monitor) port, two USB 2.0 ports, PS/2 mouse and keyboard
ports and two gigabit Ethernet ports.
