Introduction
Overview
The Sun Ultra 5 computer provides a hardware platform that supports call center software
applications, and is designed to do the following:
● Increase performance with the SPARC-V9 64-bit RISC architecture (includes a 400
MHz clock and a 256 KB internal cache in the current model; older models have
different clock speeds).
● Enhance system availability by using error-correcting memory. This memory protects
the system and data from single-bit soft errors that can occur.
● Provide expandable performance and capabilities with a balanced architecture (all
elements of the system, CPU, memory, I/O, and graphics work at full speed).
● Include a minimum internal disk storage space of 20 GB.
— A 20-GB EIDE primary disk drive is the current standard on Ultra 5 computers
delivered from the factory. Newer models may have larger primary disk drives. Older
models may have an 8.3-GB or a 4.3-GB primary disk drive.
— An optional 20-GB EIDE secondary disk drive may be ordered. This drive can be
added as the primary or secondary internal disk drive for older models of the Ultra 5
to increase disk capacity. Older models may have a 9.1-GB secondary disk drive.
● Accommodate up to four external small computer system interface (SCSI) disk drives
and two SCSI tape drives.
● Allow for cost-effective upgrades to disk storage and memory.
