When traveling, do not check your notebook as baggage. You can put your notebook through an X-ray security machine, but never put your notebook through a metal detector. If you have your note- book checked by hand, be sure to have a charged battery ready in case you are asked to turn on your notebook.

When traveling with the hard drive removed from your notebook, wrap the drive in an insulated material, such as cloth or paper. If you have the drive checked by hand, you may be asked to install the drive into your notebook. Your can have the hard drive checked through an X-ray machine, but never put the drive through a metal detector.

When traveling, do not place your notebook in the overhead stor- age compartment where it could shift around. Do not drop your notebook or subject it to other mechanical shocks.

Protect your notebook, battery, and hard drive from environmental hazards such as dirt, dust, food, liquids, extreme temperature, and direct exposure to sunlight.

When you move your notebook in environments where there is a substantial difference of temperature or humidity level, condensa- tion may form on or within your notebook. To avoid damaging your notebook, please allow sufficient time for the moisture to evaporate before continue using.

NOTICE: When taking your notebook from a colder to a warmer environ- ment or vice versa, allow your notebook enough time to adapt to the new environment before turning on power.

•When unplugging the power cord, please make sure that you pull on its connector or on its strain relief loop, and not on the power cord itself. As you pull out the connector, please ensure that it is

pulled out evenly in order not to bend its connecting pins. Also, be- fore you connect the power cord, make sure that both connectors are correctly oriented and aligned.

Before you clean your notebook, turn it off first, unplug it from its power source, and remove the battery.

Handle interior components with care. When removing a compo- nent, please hold it by the edge and not on the connecting pins (such as the memory module).

When using your telephone equipments, safety instructions should always be followed in order to prevent fire, electrical shock or injuries, these instructions include:

Do not use this product near water, for example, near a bath- tub, washing basins, kitchen/laundry sinks, wet basements or swimming pools.

Avoid using cordless phones during an electrical storm as light- ening may cause electrical shocks.

Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak within the leak- age area.

WARNING: Void of Warranty

*If the battery is not properly handled, there may be a risk of explosion; make sure you are using the same or compatible battery.

*Please discard used batteries according to the instructions given by the manufacturer.

*Please be aware that use of cracked, severely scratched or poor quality discs may damage the optical drive and corrupt data in the disc. Such discs may break while drive operates in high- speed, in this case, your product warranty may be voided.

W476, W576 specifications

Intel's W576 and W476 processors are innovative additions to the company's Xeon lineup, designed specifically for high-performance computing tasks and enterprise-level applications. These processors cater to a diverse range of industries requiring robust processing power, reliability, and energy efficiency.

The Intel W576 processor is equipped with 24 cores and 48 threads, featuring an impressive base clock speed of 2.6 GHz, which can boost up to 4.4 GHz with Intel Turbo Boost technology. This architecture allows for exceptional multitasking capabilities, making it suitable for data-intensive applications, virtualization, and AI workloads. The W576 supports Intel's Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX-512), which enhances its ability to perform complex calculations efficiently, vital for scientific simulations and machine learning processes.

On the other hand, the W476 processor, although slightly less powerful with its 16 cores and 32 threads, still delivers formidable performance with a base clock speed of 2.4 GHz and a turbo frequency of 4.3 GHz. The W476 is designed for workloads that do not require the same level of parallel processing as the W576 but still demand substantial computational power, making it ideal for enterprises focused on reliable performance without extreme scalability requirements.

Both processors integrate Intel's Speed Shift technology, which allows for quicker adjustments to CPU performance based on workload demands. This contributes to improved power efficiency and thermal management, ensuring that both processors operate optimally under varying workloads. They also support Intel Deep Learning Boost, which enables accelerated AI inference performance, crucial for businesses leveraging machine learning solutions.

Furthermore, these processors include features such as Intel Optane memory support, which enhances system responsiveness and storage capabilities, and support for DDR4 memory up to 3200 MT/s, allowing for faster data throughput. The W576 and W476 also possess robust security features including Intel Software Guard Extensions which provide hardware-based protection for sensitive data and applications.

In summary, the Intel W576 and W476 processors represent a significant step forward in processing technology for enterprise environments. With their advanced architectures, improved power efficiency, and support for modern workloads, they provide the versatility and performance required in today's data-driven landscape. Whether for high-demand AI applications or reliable enterprise computing, these processors stand out as powerful solutions that align with the evolving needs of the industry.
