IBM IntelliStation - ps-2

xSeries 360 contains five front-accessible drive bays located on the right side of the server. The top two bays contain the standard slim-line CD-ROM and 1.44MB
slim-line diskette drive. Three 3.5in slim-line, hot-swap drive bays are located beneath them. The IDE CD-ROM is docked to a media interposer card that is cabled
to the lightpath card before terminating at the system planar. The three SCA2-compliant hot-swap bays attach to a hot-swap backplane that connects to the
integrated single-channel Ultra160 controller through an integrated bus. For RAID configurations, a cable provided with the system is connected to one of the
internal connectors of the RAID controller and the other end of the cable is attached to a connector that supports the hot-swap HDD backplane, located on the
planar between slot one and the memory card, beneath the memory options.
For additional information regarding internal cabling, refer to Appendix F: Internal Cabling Overview.

1. Due to two-way interleaving, all RDIMMs must be installed in pairs in the
order indicated by the diagram. Chipkill support is provided on the memory
card. Only installation in pairs is supported. The order of installation in pairs is
sockets one and two, three and four, five and six, and seven and eight
2. Installation of 2GB RDIMMs requires BIOS and diagnostic firmware version
1.08 or later. When more than 8GB of memory is installed, the integrated SCSI
controller must be disabled. .

This table does not represent all possible memory configurations.
1. Network operating systems may limit the maximum amount of addressable memory. See operating system
specifications for further information.
2. To obtain the quantity of memory identified in the “Total Memory” column, select the appropriate row and
order the quantity of RDIMMs identified in all columns for that row.
3. Requires removal of standard RDIMMs.
4. Installation of 2GB RDIMMs requires BIOS and diagnostic firmware version 1.08 or later. When more than
8GB of memory is installed, the integrated SCSI controller must be disabled.
