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 v endor 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 non-operating limits.

Warnings
Heed safety instructions: 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.
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.

Note: Before you put the heatsink on top of the installed processor, do not forget to check if the
grease is completely on the bottom of the heatsink. Put the two heatsinks with the 16-fin
side facing the corresponding DIMM group.
System Memory
Each motherboard supports 18 DDR3 1333/1066/800 DIMMs depending on DIMM
population and each processor supports up to three channels, one channel with three slots.
Both registered DIMM and unbuffered DIMM modules are supported. One processor
supports up to 72GB memory when 8GB DIMM is available.
Mixed memory is neither tested nor supported. Non-ECC memory is not tested and is not
recommended for use in a server environment.

System Memory Channel Population Requirements for
Memory RAS Modes
The rules on channel population and channel matching vary by the RAS mode used. There
are three different memory RAS modes: Independent Channel Mode, Mirrored Channel
Mode, and Lockstep Channel Mode.
Note: Mirrored Channel Mode and Lockstep Channel Mode require matching populations that
the same slot positions across channels must hold the same DIMM type with regards to
size and organization.
Independent Channel Mode
Channels can be populated in any order in this mode. All these channels may be populated
in any order and have no matching requirements. All channels must run at the same
interface frequency but individual channels may run at different DIMM timings (RAS
latency, CAS latency, and so forth).
Mirrored Channel Mode
In Mirrored Channel Mode, the memory contents are mirrored between Channel 0 and
Channel 1. As a result of the mirroring, the total physical memory available to the system
is half of what is populated. Mirrored Channel Mode requires that Channel 0 and Channel
1 must be populated identically with regards to size and organization. DIMM slot
populations within a channel do not have to be identical but the same DIMM slot location
across Channel 0 and Channel 1 must be populated the same. Channel 2 is unused in
Mirrored Channel Mode.
Lockstep Channel Mode
In Lockstep Channel Mode, each memory access is a 128-bit data access that spans
Channel 0 and Channel 1. Lockstep Channel mode is the only RAS mode that supports x8
SDDC. Lockstep Channel Mode requires that Channel 0 and Channel 1 must be populated
identically with regards to size and organization. DIMM slot populations within a channel
do not have to be identical but the same DIMM slot location across Channel 0 and
Channel 1 must be populated the same. Channel 2 is unused in Lockstep Channel Mode.
For your reference, Table 3 offers an ideal DIMM population option for A-F channels of
processor 1 and 2. The last column in tables marks DIMM installation under Mirrored
Channel Mode for your reference.

Note: The empty DIMM socket is marked as “-” and installed DIMM socket is marked as “V”.
It is recommended to insert DIMM equally for each CPU so as to give maximizes system
performance.
It is highly recommended that all DIMMs with same part number be used within one
motherboard.
For Unbuffered DIMMs or Quad-rank Registered DIMMs, only configuration 1~6 could
be supported.
Optional Note: For other Registered DIMMs, configuration 1~9 could be supported.

Intel® Server System SR1680MV Service Guide 43
Page 64
Cable Connections
You can get a clear picture on how to connect the cables from the following figures.
Before connecting the cables, you must make sure there are no existing bent pins because
they will affect signal transmission. With the Pin 1 location and fool-proof feature, you
can link these cables correctly and conveniently. There are two ways for you to judge how
to connect the cables:
1. When there is no fool-proof feature on this connector, you should connect the red
margin of the cable to the pin 1 location on the connector.
2. When there is a fool-proof feature on the connector, you can connect the cable
according to the fool-proof feature.
This section contains figures showing cable locations and descriptions of the connection
procedures.

5 BIOS Setup and Configuration
This section describes the BIOS Setup Utility options. You can run the BIOS setup with or
without an operating system present. Onboard devices are configured with the BIOS
Setup utility that is embedded in flash ROM.
The configuration utilities allow you to modify the CMOS RAM and NVRAM. The actual
hardware configuration is accomplished by the BIOS POST routines and the BIOS PlugN-Play auto-configuration manager. The configuration utilities update a checksum for
both areas, so potential data corruption is detected by the BIOS before the hardware
configuration is saved. If the data is corrupted, the BIOS requests that the user reconfigure
the system and reboot.
Note: Because the BIOS code is the most often changed part of the server board design, the
BIOS information described in this section may be a little different compared to the actual
BIOS that contained in your server board.
BIOS Setup Utility
This section describes the ROM-resident setup utility that provides the means to configure
the platform. The BIOS Setup utility is part of the system BIOS and allows limited control
over onboard resources.
The user can disable embedded PCI devices through the setup menus. When these devices
are disabled through setup, their resources are freed.
Note: The BIOS options described in this section may or may not be present in pre-production
versions of the system BIOS. This section describes the BIOS utility as it is planned to be
at production and is subject to change. Option locations, in a given menu of the BIOS
Setup utility as described in this section, may be different from those observed on any one
pre-production version of the system BIOS.
The BIOS Setup utility screen is divided into four functional areas.
Table 5. BIOS Setup Utility Screen Descriptions
Functional Area Description
Keyboard Command Bar Located at the bottom of the right screen or as part of the help
screen. This bar displays the keyboard commands supported by
the setup utility.
Menu Selection Bar Located at the top of the screen. Displays the various major menu
selections available to the user . The Server Setup utility major
menus are: Main Menu, Advanced Menu, Boot Menu, Security
Menu, and Exit Menu.

screen. Each menu contains a set of features. Selecting certain
features within a major Option Menu drops you into sub-menus.
Item-Specific Help Screen An item-specific Help screen is located at the upside of the ri ght
side of the screen.
Entering the BIOS Setup Utility
During the BIOS POST operation, the user is prompted to use the Del function key to
enter Setup as follows:
Press <F2> to run <Setup>.
Press <F11> to enter BBS POPUP.
A few seconds might pass before Setup is entered. This is the result of POST completing
test and initialization functions that must be completed before Setup can be entered. When
Setup is entered, the Main Menu options page displays.
Keyboard Command Bar
The right portion of the Setup screen provides a list of commands that are used to navigate
through the Setup utility. These commands display at all times.
Each menu page contains a number of configurable options and/or informational fields.
Depending on the level of security in affect, configurable options may or may not be
changed. If an option cannot be changed due to the security level, its selection field is
made inaccessible.
The Keyboard Command Bar supports the following:
Table 6. Keyboard Command Bar Description
Key Option Description
Enter Execute Command The Enter key is used to activate sub-menus when the selected
feature is a sub-menu, or to display a pick list if a selected option
