Compaq ProLiant 3000 Server
Features
Compaq ProLiant 3000 servers deliver state-of-the-art Intel Pentium II
processor technology, expanded storage capacity, dual memory controllers,
dual peer PCI buses, and advanced high-availability features.
Performance is maximized with up to two Pentium II processors, a new system
architecture that improves overall system bandwidth, and up to 512 megabytes
(for 300MHz models) or up to 3 gigabytes (for 333MHz models) of buffered
EDO ECC memory. Input/output performance is enhanced by features such as
Wide-Ultra SCSI-3 hard drives.
Compaq ProLiant 3000 servers provide state-of-the-art reliability and high-
availability features, including redundant hot-pluggable power supplies and
hot-pluggable Wide-Ultra SCSI-3 drives.
To facilitate upgrade and repair tasks, Compaq designed the ProLiant 3000
server so that no tools are required to enter the chassis.

unless otherwise noted.
