1-2 Motherboard Features

At the heart of the 1011M-T2 lies the H8SMi-2, a single processor motherboard designed to provide maximum performance. Below are the main features of the H8SMi-2. (See Figure 1-1 for a block diagram of the chipset.)

Processors

The H8SMi-2 has an 940-pin AM2 type socket that supports a single AMD Opteron Series 1000 processor. Please refer to the support section of our web site for a complete listing of supported processors.

Memory

The H8SMi-2 has four (4) 240-pin DIMM sockets that can support up to 8 GB of ECC/non-ECC DDR2-800/667/533 SDRAM. (Memory can operate in either single or dual dual-channel mode.)

Serial ATA

A 3 Gb/s Serial ATA controller is incorporated into the nVidia MCP55 Pro chipset. The Serial ATA drives in the 1011M-T2 are hot-swappable and RAID 0 and 1 sup- ported.

PCI Expansion Slots

The H8SMi-2 has one PCI-Express x16 slot, one PCI-Express x8 slot, one PCI- Express x4 slot, three PCI slots and one low-profi le SIM slot (for an IPMI card). When incorporated into the 1011M-T2 server system, a riser card (CSE-RR1U-E16) is included for use with the PCI-E x16 slot to support one standard size expansion card.

Ethernet Ports

An on-chip (MCP55 Pro) Ethernet controller is incorporated into the H8SMi-2 to support two Gigabit LAN ports.

ATI Graphics Controller

The 1011M-T2 features an integrated video controller based on the ES1000 graphics chip. The ES1000 was designed specifi cally for servers, featuring low power consumption, high reliability and superior longevity.
