Please take note of the following criteria for creating a practical and safe workplace when setting up
your computer:
The system can be used anywhere the temperature is suitable for people. However, rooms
with humidity over 70%, and dusty or dirty areas are not appropriate. In addition, do not
expose the server to any temperatures over +30 °C or under +10 °C.
Make sure that the cables connecting the server to peripheral devices are not tight.
Make sure that all power and connection cables are positioned so that they are not trip
hazards.
When you save data to your server‘s hard disks or to a floppy disk, they are stored as
magnetic information on the media. Make sure that they are not damaged by magnetic or
electromagnetic fields.
Because the electronics in your computer can be damaged by jarring, no mechanical devices
should be placed on the same surface as the server. This is especially important for impact
printers whose vibrations could damage the hard disk.
Please take care to ensure a free air flow to the server at all times. Do not block the ventilation
slots of the server case and particularly the power supplies. An insufficient air flow may
damage the server and / or it’s components.
ATTENTION
In order to fully separate the server from current, the power cord must be removed from the wall
outlet.

RAID Support
The server system provides an embedded SATA controller that supports both 1.5 and 3.0 Gbps data
transfer rates.
The BIOS Setup utility provides multiple drive configuration options on the Advanced | ATA Controller
setup page, some of which affect the ability to configure RAID. The “Onboard SATA Controller” option
is enabled by default. When this option is enabled, the “SATA Mode” option can be set to either
Legacy or Enhanced. The Legacy and Enhanced modes affect the RAID configuration as follows:
• Legacy supports four disk drives and does not provide RAID support.
• Enhanced supports six disk drives and is required for RAID configurations.
When the enhanced mode is selected, you can choose to enable or disable “AHCI Mode” or “Configure
SATA as RAID”. Intel
®
Embedded Server RAID Technology II is enabled by the option, “Configure
SATA as RAID.” The Intel® Embedded Server RAID Technology II feature provides RAID modes 0,
1, and 10.
For RAID 0, 1, and 10, enclosure management is provided through the SATA_SGPIO connector on
the server board when a cable is attached between this connector on the server board and to the
backplane or I2C interface.
Hardware Requirements
Processor
One or two Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® 5000 sequence processors must be installed.
Memory
The server board provides eight DIMM sockets across two branches, and each branch has two
channels. The DIMM configuration is shown in the following figure.
Channel A
Channel C
Channel B
Channel D
DIMMB2 Socket
DIMMB1 Socket
DIMMC1 Socket

Branch 0
Figure 8. DIMM Configuration Diagram
15MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 2200 IR M6
Page 16
DIMMs must be populated in pairs across consecutive channels starting with the lowest numbered slot
in each channel. Slots A1 and B1 are paired, followed by slots C1 and D1. For performance reasons,
when configuring four DIMMs, DIMM pairs A2 and B2 should never be populated before DIMM pair
C1 and D1. A four DIMM configuration should be populated as A1 and B1; C1 and D1.
In non-mirrored mode, all DIMMs with the same slot number within a given branch must match (size,
technology, manufacturer). It is not required to match DIMMs between different slot numbers.
DIMMs must meet the following requirements:
• Use only Fully Buffered DIMMs (FBD) with DDR2 DRAM technology.
• Use only FBD DDR2-533 and FBD DDR2-667 stacked DIMM modules.
In determining your memory requirements, the need for memory sparing or memory mirroring must
be considered.
Memory Sparing and Mirroring
The chipset includes hardware that supports memory mirroring and memory on-line sparing. Both
memory mirroring and memory on-line sparing provide a way to prevent data loss in case a DIMM
fails.
In a mirrored system, the maximum usable memory is one-half of the installed memory, with a
minimum of four DIMMs installed. Since the data is duplicated across DIMMs, it means that up to
one-half of the installed DIMMs are actively in use at any one time. The remaining DIMMs are used
for mirroring.
Memory mirroring and memory sparing are mutually exclusive. Only one can be active at a time.
Optional Hardware
Remote Management Module
The Remote Management Module is available to provide advanced server mangement features.
One 10/100 Mbps NIC mezzanine card is included for dedicated remote access.

5 Server Utilities
Using the BIOS Setup Utility
This section describes the BIOS Setup Utility options, which is used to change server configuration
defaults.
Starting Setup
You can enter and start BIOS Setup under several conditions:
• When you turn on the server, after POST completes the memory test
• When you have moved the CMOS jumper on the server board to the “Clear CMOS” position
(enabled)
In the two conditions listed above, during the Power On Self Test (POST), you will see this prompt:
Press <F2> to enter SETUP
In a third condition, when CMOS/NVRAM has been corrupted, you will see other prompts but not
the <F2> prompt:
Warning: CMOS checksum invalid
Warning: CMOS time and date not set
In this condition, the BIOS will load default values for CMOS and attempt to boot.
If You Cannot Access Setup
If you are not able to access BIOS Setup, you might need to clear the CMOS memory. For instructions
on clearing the CMOS, see “Clearing the CMOS”.
Setup Menus
Each BIOS Setup menu page contains a number of features. Except for those features that are
provided only to display automatically configured information, each feature is associated with a
value field that contains user-selectable parameters. These parameters can be changed if the user
has adequate security rights. If a value cannot be changed for any reason, the feature’s value field
is inaccessible.
