Attention

Attention:
A four-digit feature code is used to specify a component that is configurable in the IBM configurators, the eBusiness Configurator (eConfig) and the IBM Web-based Hardware Configurator, used in US and Canada. Options that do not have feature codes cannot be integrated by IBM into a system using these IBM configurators. To purchase options separately, refer to the option part number provided in this document.

Notes:

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
8849-10Y is 8849-10U. 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 the country-specific designator.
The 8849 machine type carries a one year limited parts and labor
warranty. The 8491 machine type carries a three year limited parts
and labor warranty.
Withdrawal dates are provided for U.S. and Canada only. Business
Partner Inventory may be available.
A maximum of 8GB of memory is supported via 4 DIMM slots.
See "Power and Accessories" section for more information on
the power supplies.
Simple Swap SATA models support HostRAID 0, 1 via the Adaptec
HostRAID ROM code and enabled through the BIOS setup menu.
The ServeRAID 7t SATA controller must be installed for additional
RAID capabilities.
SAS/SATA models provide RAID 0,1 support on the integrated
controller for SAS or SATA drives. The ServeRAID 8i SAS RAID
controller may be installed for additional RAID capabilities.
All of the SAS/SATA (Hot Swap) models use the same backplane
for drives and use either SATA or SAS drives.Maximum capacity for
Hot-Swap SAS/SATA models is based on two 500GB hot-swap SAS HDDs.
Maximum capacity for Simple-swap SATA models is based on two 500GB
SATA HDDs.
Two slim high DASD bays for simple swap SATA models or two slim
high Hot-swap DASD bays for Hot Swap SAS/SATA models.
