VR-N100U USERS MANUAL

2.3.VR-N100U Hardware Overview

The VR-N100U comes preconfigured in a 19” 1U Rackmount enclosure. The embedded industrial server board with processor, heat sink, fan, memory, non-volatile flash disk and LCD display have all been installed and passed quality control prior to shipping. Although the design of the board is very compact, it provides all of the key standard components plus many customized features. The VR-N100U board is the next generation industrial grade motherboard that was designed from the ground-up with storage, performance and flexibility in mind. This all-in-one server board is the most powerful appliance platform on the market, offering a vast array of onboard storage and connectivity components in a very small form-factor. The latest VR-N100U operating system and applications are installed and tested on the non-volatile flash disk. In addition, the hard disk drives have also been tested and configured as a RAID-5 set prior to shipping for all VR-N100U 19” 1U Rackmount Systems.
