NOTE:The x1, x4, x8, and x16 designators describe the number of electrical PCIe lanes routed to an expansion slot. For example, x16(8) means that the expansion slot is mechanically a x16 length connector, with eight PCIe lanes connected. Processor technology This workstation uses the Intel® 5520 chipset to support the latest Quad Core Intel® Xeon™ processor 5500 Series, including processors up to 130W. These processors incorporate an integrated 3-channel memory controller, microarchitecture improvements, and large L3 cache to provide superior performance. The workstation uses the Intel QuickPath Interconnect (QPI) to connect the processors and I/O controllers with speeds up to 6.4 GT/s. Memory technology Workstation dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs) are based on DDR3 1333MHz technology, and are error checking and correcting (ECC)-protected. Six direct-attach memory channels—three per central processing unit (CPU)—enable low latency accesses and fast data transfer for improved performance. Configurations with one processor provide access to six DIMM slots, while the addition of a second processor provides access to six more DIMM slots, supporting a total system memory size up to 192GB (using 16GB DIMMs). Graphics This workstation supports PCIe Gen2 (PCIe2) bus speeds and can support dual PCIe Gen2 graphics cards in PCIe2 x16 slots. With the standard 850W power supply, the workstation an support up to two 150W graphics cards. A second graphics card may be supported in the second PCIe2 x16 slot, subject to overall system power limitations. With the optional 1110W power supply, the workstation can support up to two high power (~225W) graphics cards. Expansion card slots This workstation includes two Intel 5520 chips to provide a total of seven high-performance graphics and I/O slots. It eliminates the legacy PCI-X slot and implements a PCIe slot in its place. This implementation results in improved I/O bandwidth performance. Addition features Redundant array of independent disks (RAID) configurations for SATA support modes 0, 1, 5 and 10. eSATA (3.0 Gbps) is supported using an optional adapter. This workstation provides nine external and three internal USB 2.0 ports. The 850W power supply is 85% efficient, and the 1110W power supply is 89% efficient. Both power supplies enable Energy Star Version 5.0 system configurations. HP WattSaver technology enables support of the European Union EuP power limit of 1W in off mode. HP Quiet Fan Technology enables quiet system operation. 2 Chapter 1 Workstation overview ENWW
