    (GAV) model numbers which are not orderable as listed and need to
    be modified by country. The U.S. GAV model numbers use the following
    nomenclature: xxU. For example, the U.S. orderable part number for
    8648-00Y is 8648-00U. See the product specific Official IBM announcement
    letter for other country-specific GAV model numbers. GAV to MTM
    mapping for L.A. and A.P. Geographies follow the same pattern. Substitute
    the last character with a country-specific designator.
  2. Withdrawal dates are provided for U.S. and Canada only. Business
    Partner Inventory may be available.
  3. Intel Xeon processor with Extended Memory 64 Technology (EM64T),
    L2 cache and an 800MHz (quad-pumped) Front Side Bus (FSB).
  4. High-speed, two-way interleaved PC2-3200 RDIMMs. Maximum capacity
    requires replacing the standard DIMMs. x226 will support 16GB of
    memory using a supported 4GB DIMM.
  5. A 4U tower-to-rack conversion kit is available. See 'Power
    and Accessories.'

    SATA HDD per controller. Both the SCSI and SATA integrated controllers support
    Integrated ServeRAID-7e (RAID-0 and RAID-1).
  9. Maximum storage capacity for SATA models is based on four 250GB
    SATA HDDs which requires installation of the optional ServeRAID-7t
    controller and replacement of the standard HDD. Standard configuration
    will support two SATA HDDs.
  10. Maximum storage capacity for hot-swap SCSI models is based on
    six 146.8GB hot-swap HDDs.
  11. The 8648 machine type carries a one year limited parts and labor warranty.
