Server Features • ECC and Advanced ECC memory for single-bit memory error correction and multi-bit memory error detection • 2 × 1 interleaving memory • Optional Advanced Memory Protection For more information on Advanced Memory Protection, refer to the HP ProLiant ML530 Generation 2 Server Memory Installation Guide. PCI-X Expansion Slots HP ProLiant ML530 Generation 2 servers offer a range of features for internal and external expansion in ways that ensure optimal availability and performance. • PCI-X technology HP ProLiant ML530 Generation 2 servers feature seven 64-bit, 100-MHz expansion slots operating across four buses that support the latest industry-standard technology, Peripheral Component Interconnect Extended (PCI-X). This follow-on technology increases the data throughput capacity of PCI technology and minimizes bottlenecks associated with high-bandwidth devices, such as: - Gigabit Ethernet NICs - Fibre channel controllers - Smart Array Controllers • Load balancing and PCI Hot Plug The server's PCI-X expansion slots operate across four separate buses to enable load balancing across multiple expansion boards. Four hot-plug slots provide enhanced availability. • Expansion slot speed LEDs Internal LEDs associated with each PCI-X slot enable you to determine at a glance whether the board in that slot is a PCI board or a PCI-X board, as well as the speed at which the board is operating.
