Introduction

Extensions and conversions

Additional accessible drives

Three 5.25-inch bays are available for accessible drives. The top side bay is already occupied by a CD/DVD ROM drive.

Hard disks extension box

In the SCSI version the two lower 5.25-inch bays for accessible drives can be used to integrate a hard disks extension box.

The hard disks extension box enables up to three additional HDD modules to be integrated. Each HDD module can accommodate a SCSI hard disk drive with an SCA (Single Connector Attachment) interface and a height of at most 1 inch. The connection to the SCSI backplane is made without cables via the SCA interface. This makes it simple to plug in or pull out the HDD modules. If the server has a RAID controller and the corresponding RAID configuration, defective HDD modules can also be replaced while the system is operating.

Additional controllers in the PCI slots

The system board offers six PCI slots: 2 x PCI-X (64 Bit / 66 MHz), 3 x PCI (32 Bit / 33 MHz) and 1 x PCI-Express x1 slot.

The PCI slot 2 is prepared for Zero Channel RAID (ZCR).

RemoteView Service Board S2 LP

The RemoteView Service Board S2 LP (RSB S2 LP) is a PCI board with a completely independent system, i.e. it has its own operating system with Web server and SNMP agents and can optionally be equipped with an external power supply. The RSB S2 LP permits remote diagnosis for system analysis, remote system configuration and remote restart even in the event of operating system failure or hardware faults. It has its own LAN connection and its own COM port. All the functions of the RSB S2 LP are thus available either via a LAN or modem.

External SCSI interface

If the internal hard disks are connected via a PCI RAID controller, one channel of the on-board controller can also be made available for connecting a peripheral cabinet SX10 via an external SCSI interface.
