1.3 Expansions and conversions
Second processor
The system board can be upgraded with a second processor. Only processors
of the same type may be used on the system board. The second processor must
have the same clock frequency as the first.
Main memory expansion
The system board supports up to 96 GB of main memory. 6 slots (2 banks with
3 channels each) are provided for each CPU for the main memory.
Accessible drive
In the version with a maximum of six HDD modules, a 5.25 inch bay is available
for a DVD drive (SATA interface) with a height of 0.5 inches.
Extending the number of HDD modules
You can add further HDD modules, if required. The server can accommodate a
maximum of eight HDD modules. To do this, you may need to exchange the
HDD backplane.
Expansion cards in the PCI slots
The system board offers two slots with a PCI Express x8 interface and one slot
with a PCI Express x4 interface (exclusively for modular RAID controllers):
Expansion cards can only be installed using three-slot riser cards. The riser
cards provide three slots at a right angle to the system board (two slots for PCIe
controllers and one slot for a RAID controller).
Intelligent Battery Backup Unit
You can add an iBBU (intelligent Battery Backup Unit) to the optional modular
RAID controller to ensure data integrity in the event of a power failure.
uSSD
You can insert a USB solid state disk on the system board at a later time.
