with TCP/IP offload engine for Microsoft Windows, iSCSI boot, and optional accelerated

One (1) additional embedded 10/100 network adapter dedicated to

NOTE: The Gigabit Ethernet adapters
transmit from the server at 2000 Mbps, full duplex per port. However,
within a Linux environment, the speed can be reduced or "throttled"
using a feature available within the Linux operating system; see the white
paper at: http://h71028.www7.hp.com/ERC/downloads/4AA1-5513ENW.pdf
for more information.
Once the adapter signal reaches the interconnect within the blade enclosure
and communicates outside the blade enclosure to the LAN, the blade interconnect
uplink types and settings determine the cable media, speed, duplex mode,
and auto negotiation mode. Interconnects are available with Ethernet uplinks
supporting 10/100/1000T, 10/100/1000 SFP, 1000 SX fiber, and 10Gb speeds.
Multifunction
Networking
The embedded
multifunction NC373i combines standard Gigabit Ethernet networking, TCP/IP offload
engine (TOE) for Microsoft Windows, iSCSI boot, and optional accelerated iSCSI
into a single adapter.
TOE moves the processing of data
in the TCP protocol stack from the server CPU to the network card, freeing CPU
cycles for other activities. With TOE, network communications are improved, and
server efficiency is increased. The NC373i offers TOE for Microsoft® Windows
environments.
The iSCSI boot allows the BL480c to boot from a remote operating
system (OS) image located on a storage area network (SAN). The BL480c uses an
iSCSI firmware image (iSCSI boot option ROM) making the remote disk drive appear
as a local, bootable C: drive. The BL480c is configured to connect to and boot
from the iSCSI target disk on the network and download the OS image from the iSCSI
target disk. The iSCSI boot option ROM is supplied by HP at no cost. The additional
cost and mezzanine slot usage of an add-in iSCSI HBA card is not required. Additionally,
the HP iSCSI boot solution includes scripts to significantly simplify the installation
process.
I/O Expansion Slots
Three I/O expansion mezzanine
slots; one Type I x4 PCIe (15 watts) and two x8 PCIe (25 watts)

NOTE:
Memory configurations listed do not apply to "Factory Integrated Models".
DIMM installation guidelines:
The
maximum memory is 64 GB
All DIMMs must be PC2-5300 fully buffered DIMMs
operating at 667 MHz.
Both DIMM slots in a memory bank must be populated.
Banks must be populated in sequential alphabetic order, starting with
bank A.
Both DIMMs in a memory bank must be identical. Install identical
DIMMs as pairs only, starting with DIMM socket 1, bank A.
Multiple advanced
memory protection (AMP) modes are supported, based on FBDIMM population and RBSU
selection. The server blade defaults to Advanced ECC.

NOTE:
Other maximum memory configurations are possible using two pairs of
4 GB DIMMs in place of a pair of 8 GB DIMMs. NOTE: For a specific memory level, the best performance is achieved
using a homogenous memory configuration (i.e. all DIMMs have the same capacity).

NOTE: DIMM banks
are active only when the corresponding processor socket is populated.
NOTE: Other maximum
memory configurations are possible using two pairs of 4 GB DIMMs in place
of a pair of 8 GB DIMMs.
Hard Drives NOTE: The components of a storage
subsystem (e.g. the drive, the HBA/controller, and the server backplane)
should operate at the same data transfer rate or the system bandwidth will
be negotiated down to an acceptable level for all components.
