Serverboard Features

At the heart of the 2026T-6RFT+/2026T-6F+ lies the X8DTU-6TF+/X8DTU-6F+, a
dual processor serverboard based on the Intel® 5520 chipset. Below are the main
features of the serverboard. (See Figure 1-1 for a block diagram of the chipset).

Processors

The X8DTU-6TF+/X8DTU-6F+ supports single or dual Intel® 5500/5600 Series
processors in LGA1366 sockets. Please refer to our web site for a complete listing
of supported processors (www.supermicro.com).

Memory

The X8DTU-6TF+/X8DTU-6F+ features 18 DIMM sockets that can support up to 192
GB of registered ECC DDR3-1333/1066/800 or 48 GB of unbuffered ECC/non-ECC
DDR3-1333/1066/800 SDRAM. Please refer to Chapter 5 for installing memory.

UIO

The X8DTU-6TF+/X8DTU-6F+ is a specially-designed serverboard that features
Supermicro's UIO (Universal I/O) technology. UIO serverboards have a PCI Ex-
press 2.0 x8 slot that can support any one of several types of UIO card types to add
SAS ports, SATA ports, additional LAN ports or other additional functions to the
serverboard. This allows the user to tailor the serverboard to their own needs.
Note: the server does not come with a UIO card installed.

Onboard SAS

An onboard LSI 2108 SAS controller in integrated into the X8DTU-6TF+/X8DTU-
6F+. The hot-swap SAS drives are connected to a backplane that provides power,
bus termination and confi guration settings.
Note: The operating system you use must have RAID support to enable the
hot-swap capability and RAID function of the SAS drives. RAID 0, 1, 5, 6,
10, 50 and 60 is supported. Refer to the following ftp site for setup guidelines
<ftp://ftp.supermicro.com/driver/SAS/LSI/LSI_SAS_EmbMRAID_SWUG.pdf>.

Onboard Serial ATA

An on-chip (ICH10R) SATA controller is integrated into the X8DTU-6TF+/X8DTU-
6F+ to provide a six-port, 3 Gb/sec SATA subsystem, which is RAID 0, 1, 5 and
10 supported (RAID 5 is supported with Windows OS only). The SATA drives are
hot-swappable units.
