Technical Specifications

DIMM Serial Presence Detect

Detects whether or not memory DIMMs are present and their type

Hard drive serial number, Hard drive manufacturer, model, and serial number is stored in the hard drive firmware and model, and manufacturer reported in ROM-based F10 setup

Memory Change Alert

(Requires HP Client

Manager Software)

Ownership Tag

Ultra ATA Integrity

Monitoring

(CRC Checking)

Alerts management console if memory is removed or changed

A user-defined string stored in non-volatile memory that is displayed in the BIOS splash screen

A feature of SATA and SCSI, Cyclic Redundancy Checking provides data transfer verification and proactive notification of hard drive data transmission problems with recommendations for enhancing system performance. It detects all the following errors' types:

single bit errors double bit errors

an odd number of errors error bursts up to 32-bits long

Drive Self Tests (DPS)

Drive Protection System (Adaptec and LSI SCSI controllers do not offer DPS)

A diagnostic hard drive self test. It scans critical physical components and every sector of the hard drive for physical faults and then reports any faults to the user.

Running independently of the operating system, it can be accessed through the computer's setup procedure. It produces an evaluation on whether the hard drive is the source of the problem and needs to be replaced.

The system expands on the Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology (SMART), a continuously running systems diagnostic that alerts the user to certain types of failures.

DPS Access through F10 Setup during Boot (F10 diagnostic access not available with SCSI drives)

SMART Technology	Allows hard drives to monitor their own health and to raise flags if imminent failures were predicted
(Self-Monitoring, Analysis	Predicts failures before they occur. Tracks fault prediction and failure indication parameters such
and Reporting	as re-allocated sector count, spin retry count, calibration retry count.
Technology)	By avoiding actual hard drive failures, SMART hard drives act as "insurance" against unplanned
	user downtime and potential data loss from hard drive failure.
	SMART I – Drive Failure Prediction
	SMART II – Off-Line Data Collection
	SMART III – Off-Line Read Scanning with Defect Reallocation
Security Features

Access panel key lock (standard)

Padlock (optional)

Prevents removal of the access panel and all internal components including optical and floppy drives

Prevents entire system theft and discourages access panel removal. 7mm diameter padlock loop at rear of system.

Kensington Cable Lock (optional)

Prevents entire system theft only. 3mm x 7mm slot at rear of system.

Universal chassis clamp lock (optional)

The version without a cable discourages access panel removal and prevents theft of IO devices. The version with a cable additionally prevents entire system theft and allows multiple systems to be secured with a single cable.

Serviceability Features of System

Access panel	Tool-less, one-handed
Optical drives	Tool-less
Floppy drive	Tool-less
