1.3 Special features 1.3.1 Product highlights Latest processor technology The motherboard comes with dual 604-pin surface mount ZIF sockets designed for the Intel® Xeon™ processor with 800 MHz Front Side Bus (FSB) and 1 MB L2 cache. The processor incorporates the Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology, the Intel® NetBurst™ micro-architecture that features hyper-pipelined technology, and Extended Memory 64-bit Technology (EM64T). The EM64T enables the support for 64-bit operation system, such as 64-bit Windows® and Linux. See page 2-13 for details. Intel® E7210 and Intel® 6300 ESB chipset The Intel® E7210 Memory Controller Hub (MCH) and the Intel® 6300ESB I/O controller hub (ICH) provide the vital interfaces for the motherboard. The MCH provides the processor, dual-channel DDR400 memory, and CSA interfaces. The ICH is a new generation server class I/O controller hub that provides the interface for PCI-X 1.0a and other interfaces. Dual-channel memory support Employing the dual-channel DDR memory architecture, the motherboard provides a solution that doubles the system memory bandwidth to boost system performance. The motherboard supports up to 4 GB of system memory using PC3200/PC2700 ECC or non-ECC DDR DIMMs to deliver up to 6.4 GB/s data transfer rate for the latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. See page 2-16 for details. Serial ATA technology The motherboard supports the Serial ATA technology through the Serial ATA interfaces controlled by the Intel® 6300ESB and the Adaptec AIC8130 PCI-X SATA-II controller (on SATA models only). The SATA specification allows for thinner, more flexible cables with lower pin count, reduced voltage requirement, and up to 150 MB/s data transfer rate for 6300ESB and 300 MB/s for AIC-8130. See page 2-28 to 2-29 for details. Built-in SATA RAID solution The Intel® 6300ESB allows RAID 0 and RAID 1 configuration for two SATA connectors and supports the Intel® Matrix Storage Technology. See page 2-28 for details. For SATA models, the Adaptec AIC-8130 PCI-X SATA-II (300 Mbps) controller supports four additional SATA connectors, and allows RAID 0, RAID 1, and RAID 0+1 configuration. See page 2-29 for details. 1-2 Chapter 1: Product introduction
