Dell® PowerEdge® 4300 systems are feature-rich, enterprise-class server systems that use Intel® Pentium® II microprocessor(s) with MMX™ technology and incorporate high-performance PCI and AGP local buses as well as the ISA expansion bus. The PowerEdge 4300 systems have been designed for better serviceability and increased reliability. The sliding system board tray allows easy access to the system board for performing processor and memory upgrades. The Delldesigned SCSI backplane board and hard-disk drive carriers eliminate the extensive cabling and drive configuration usually required for a SCSI subsystem. The plastic drive rails attached to devices mounted in the external drive bays allow you to remove these devices without removing a single screw. The systems can be either freestanding or rack-mounted. A PowerEdge 4300 system can contain one or two Pentium II microprocessors. Each processor is housed in a single-edge contact (SEC) cartridge/heat sink assembly mounted in a guide bracket on the system board, allowing for greater heat dissipation. The processor has an internal operating frequency of 350 or 400 MHz (or a higher speed when available) and an external operating frequency of 100 MHz. Contact Dell for information about Dell-supported microprocessor upgrades. In addition to the standard features found in a traditional personal computer, Dell PowerEdge 4300 systems include the following new and/or advanced features: One or two Intel Pentium II microprocessors with an internal operating frequency of 350 or 400 MHz (or higher speed when available) and an external bus speed of 100 MHz. NOTE: Do not attempt to operate the system with the microprocessor set to a speed other than the specified rating. Support for symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) when two microprocessors are installed. NOTE: The second microprocessor must have the same internal operating frequency as the first microprocessor. Not all versions of the Pentium II microprocessor will work properly as an additional microprocessor in this System Overview 1-1
