System x3500 (7977)


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.

Note:
  1. All x3500 models ship standard with ServeRAID-8k
    which offers RAID 0, 1, 1E, 5, 6, and 10.
  2. x3500 support for ServeRAID-8s is for full function
    RAID attachment to a single EXP3000 storage expansion unit.
    EXP3000 support by ServeRAID-8s is currently limited to
    SAS HDDs only.
  3. Before you install or ship this option in your server,
    first read the installation instructions provided in the
    option package.
  4. ServeRAID-8s Battery, p/n 39R8812, enables Battery
    Backed Cache on ServeRAID-8s.
  5. Supports Intel I/O Acceleration Technology for System x
    IOAT capable servers.
  6. Supports TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE). Not supported on
    systems with greater than 32GB installed memory.
