Notes:
  1. Model numbers provided are worldwide generally available variant
    (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
    8885-1RY is 8865-1RU. 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. System memory may be expanded to 64 GB by removing the standard
    DIMMs and adding 3 memory expansion card options and a 4 GB PC2-3200
    CL3 ECC DDR-2 SDRAM RDIMM in each of the four DIMM sockets, when
    4GB DIMMs become available.
  4. If RAID is required on the onboard SAS controller, the ServeRAID
    8i SAS RAID Controller is required to support RAID.
  5. Maximum capacity is based on twelve 300GB 3.5" SAS HDDs.
  6. A maximum of twelve drive bays can be available with the
    addition of the optional 3.5" backplane.
