System Features

The major hardware and software features of your system include:

•One or two Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® Processors 5000 Sequence.

•Support for symmetric multiprocessing (SMP), which is available on systems with two Intel Xeon processors. SMP greatly improves overall system performance by dividing processor operations between independent processors. To take advantage of this feature, you must use an operating system that supports multiprocessing.

NOTE: If you decide to upgrade your system by installing a second processor, you must order the processor upgrade kits from Dell™. Not all versions of the Intel Xeon processor will work properly as additional processors. The upgrade kit from Dell contains the correct version of the processor, heat sink, and fan as well as the instructions for performing the upgrade.

•A minimum of 512 MB of 533- or 667- MHz (when available), Fully Buffered DIMMs (FBD), upgradable to a maximum of 32 GB by installing combinations of 256-MB, 512-MB, 1-GB, 2-GB, or 4-GB memory modules in the eight memory module sockets on the system board.

The system also features redundant memory, which provides memory sparing or memory mirroring. Either feature is available if eight identical memory modules are installed.

•Support for up to six 3.5-inch, internal hot-pluggable Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) or SATA hard drives without optional media bay, or up to four 3.5-inch internal hot-pluggable SAS or SATA hard drives with optional media bay.

•The optional media bay (available only with the 3.5-inch x4 backplane configurations) provides support for an optional half-height tape backup unit (TBU) and an optional single, 1.44-MB, 3.5-inch diskette drive.

•An optional slim-line IDE CD, DVD, or combination CD-RW/DVD drive.

NOTE: DVD devices are data only.

•A chassis intrusion switch that signals the appropriate systems management software if the top cover is opened.

•Up to two hot-pluggable, 750-W power supplies in an optional 1 + 1 redundant configuration.

•Four hot-pluggable system cooling fans.
