Intel server boards contain a number of high-density VLSI and power delivery components that need adequate airflow for
cooling. Intel’s own chassis are designed and tested to meet the intended thermal requirements of these components when
the fully integrated system is used together. It is the responsibility of the system integrator that chooses not to use Intel
developed server building blocks to consult vendor datasheets and operating parameters to determine the amount of airflow
required for their specific application and environmental conditions. Intel Corporation can not be held responsible if
components fail or the server board does not operate correctly when used outside any of their published operating or nonoperating limits.

Preface
Safety Information
WARNING
Before working with your server product, whether you are using this guide or any other
resource as a reference, pay close attention to the safety instructions. You must adhere to the
assembly instructions in this guide to ensure and maintain compliance with existing product
certifications and approvals. Use only the described, regulated components specified in this
guide. Use of other products / components will void the UL listing and other regulatory
approvals of the product and will most likely result in noncompliance with product
regulations in the region(s) in which the product is sold.
Warnings
System power on/off: The power button DOES NOT turn off the system
AC power. To remove power from system, you must unplug the AC power
cord from the wall outlet. Make sure the AC power cord is unplugged before
you open the chassis, add, or remove any components.
Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical
conditions may be present on power, telephone, and communication cables.
Turn off the server and disconnect the power cord, telecommunications
systems, networks, and modems attached to the server before opening it.
Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can
damage disk drives, boards, and other parts. We recommend that you
perform all procedures in this chapter only at an ESD workstation. If one is
not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist
strap attached to chassis ground⎯any unpainted metal surface⎯on your
server when handling parts.
ESD and handling boards: Always handle boards carefully. They can
be extremely sensitive to ESD. Hold boards only by their edges. After
removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the server, place the
board component side up on a grounded, static free surface. Use a
conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide
board over any surface.
Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic encased
conductor that slips over two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on
top that you can grip with your fingertips or with a pair of fine needle nosed
pliers. If your jumpers do not have such a tab, take care when using needle
nosed pliers to remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the
jumper with the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide sides can
damage the contacts inside the jumper, causing intermittent problems with
the function controlled by that jumper. Take care to grip with, but not
squeeze, the pliers or other tool you use to remove a jumper, or you may
bend or break the pins on the board.

CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ -Lorsque vous ouvrez le boîtier pour accéder à l’intérieur du
système, suivez les consignes suivantes:
1. Mettez hors tension tous les périphériques connectés au système.
2. Mettez le système hors tension en mettant l’interrupteur général en position OFF
(bouton-poussoir).
3. Débranchez tous les cordons d’alimentation c.a. du système et des prises murales.
4. Identifiez et débranchez tous les câbles reliés aux connecteurs d’E-S ou aux accès
derrière le système.
5. Pour prévenir les décharges électrostatiques lorsque vous touchez aux
composants, portez une bande antistatique pour poignet et reliez-la à la masse du
système (toute surface métallique non peinte du boîtier).
6. Ne faites pas fonctionner le système tandis que le boîtier est ouvert.
Le microprocesseur et le dissipateur de chaleur peuvent être chauds si le système a été
sous tension. Faites également attention aux broches aiguës des cartes et aux bords
tranchants du capot. Nous vous recommandons l'usage de gants de protection.
Instrucciones de seguridad importantes

INSTRUCCIONES DE SEGURIDAD: Cuando extraiga la tapa del chasis para acceder al
interior del sistema, siga las siguientes instrucciones:
1. Apague todos los dispositivos periféricos conectados al sistema.
2. Apague el sistema presionando el interruptor encendido/apagado.
3. Desconecte todos los cables de alimentación CA del sistema o de las tomas de
corriente alterna.
4. Identifique y desconecte todos los cables enchufados a los conectores E/S o a los
puertos situados en la parte posterior del sistema.
5. Cuando manipule los componentes, es importante protegerse contra la descarga
6. No ponga en marcha el sistema si se han extraído las tapas del chasis.
Si el sistema ha estado en funcionamiento, el microprocesador y el disipador de calor
pueden estar aún calientes. También conviene tener en cuenta que en el chasis o en el
tablero puede haber piezas cortantes o punzantes. Por ello, se recomienda precaución y el
uso de guantes protectores.
AVVERTENZA: Italiano
PASSI DI SICUREZZA: Qualora si rimuovano le coperture del telaio per accedere
all’interno del sistema, seguire i seguenti passi:
1. Spegnere tutti i dispositivi periferici collegati al sistema.
2. Spegnere il sistema, usando il pulsante spento/acceso dell’interruttore del sistema.
3. Togliere tutte le spine dei cavi del sistema dalle prese elettriche.
4. Identificare e sconnettere tutti i cavi attaccati ai collegamenti I/O od alle prese
5. Qualora si tocchino i componenti, proteggersi dallo scarico elettrostatico (SES),
6. Non far operare il sistema quando il telaio è senza le coperture.
Se il sistema è stato a lungo in funzione, il microprocessore e il dissipatore di calore
potrebbero essere surriscaldati. Fare attenzione alla presenza di piedini appuntiti e parti
taglienti sulle schede e sul telaio. È consigliabile l'uso di guanti di protezione.

Server Board Features
Hardware Requirements
To avoid integration difficulties and possible board damage, your system must meet the
requirements outlined below. For a list of qualified components, see the links under “Additional
Information and Software.”
Processor
NOTE
Failure to use an EPS12 V or ATX12 V power supply or not connecting the
12 V (2x4) power connector to SE7221BA1-E server board may result in the
computer not booting.
The Intel® Entry Server Board SE7221BA1-E supports a single Intel® Pentium® 4 processor in
the LGA775 package. Processors are not included with the Server board and must be purchased
separately.
The processor connects to the Intel® Entry Server Board through the LGA775 socket.
The supported processors list for Intel® Entry Server Board SE7221BA1-E is located on the web
at:
http://support.Intel.com/support/motherboards/server/SE7221BA1-E/.
Memory
NOTE
To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel® SDRAM memory
specifications, the Server board should be populated with DIMMs that
support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. If your memory
modules do not support SPD, you will see a notification to this effect on the
screen at power up. The BIOS will attempt to configure the memory
controller for normal operation.
The Intel® Entry Server Board SE7221BA1-E supports dual or single channel memory
configurations defined in the table below, with four 240-pin Double Data Rate 2 (DDR2) SDRAM
Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMMs) connectors with gold-plated contacts.
Support for:
o Unbuffered, non-registered single or double-sided DIMMs
o ECC or Non-ECC DIMMs
o Serial Presence Detect (SPD) memory only
o V memory
Memory configuration:
o Up to 2.0 GB utilizing 256 Mb technology
o Up to 4.0 GB utilizing 512 Mb or 1 Gb technology
Intel® Entry Server Board SE7221BA1-E User Guide 5
Server Board Features
NOTE
System resources (such as PCI and PCI Express*) require physical memory
address locations that reduce available memory addresses above 3 GB. This
may result in less than 4 GB of memory being available to the operating
system and applications.
For a complete list of supported memory DIMMs, see the links under “Additional Information and
Software.”
