1-2 System Overview
OVERVIEW
Your server is a modular, multiprocessing server based on the Intel® Xeon microprocessor
family. It is a solid performer and offers the latest technology. The combination of compute
performance, memory capacity, and integrated I/O provides a high performance environment for
many server market applications. These range from large corporations supporting remote offices to
small companies looking to obtain basic connectivity capability such as file and print services,
e-mail, web access, web site server, etc.
This server is conveniently housed and available as a tower-based system (see figure below) or as a
rack-mount system (fits into a standard EIA 19-inch rack assembly using an optional rack
conversion kit).
Your server includes hot-swap SCSI hard disk drive bays. The hot-swap SCSI hard disk drive bays
hold up to five 1.0-inch SCSI hard disk drives that can be swapped in or out of the system without
powering it down, if RAID is configured in the system.
As application requirements increase, you can expand your server with an additional processor,
additional memory, add-in boards and peripheral devices: tape devices, CD-ROM, and hard disk
drives.
