NOTES:
One High Performance I/O Drawer can be used by up to four separate hard partitions. Each of the four I/O
connections (and two associated PCI-X slots) in the High Performance I/O Drawer can be independently controlled
(e.g. power on/off) in conjunction with a separate partition.
A Master I/O Drawer consists of a Standard or High Performance I/O Drawer plus a Combination Adapter in one slot.
The Combination Adapter provides an Ultra3 SCSI connection for two disks and a DVD/CD-RW drive in the drawer,
plus a USB connection for keyboard, mouse, and monitor. The Master I/O Drawer is required for all GS1280 systems
integrated at the manufacturing plant by HP. If the final system configuration does not require these I/O devices, the
Combination Adapter may be removed and replaced with the following alternatives:
System Boot - External storage or network boot can be used in place of the disk storage internal to the I/O
Drawer.
Software Load - Software can be loaded over the network from a disk on another system or directly from a CD
reader attached to another system by using remote mount.
User I/O - User access via a network connection can be used in place of the direct connection via the USB port.
The two disks in the Master I/O Drawer can only be connected to the system via the Combination Adapter's Ultra3
SCSI connection. The I/O Drawer design does not permit connection from other storage adapters, such as a RAID
adapter, that might be installed in the I/O Drawer.
Each Master I/O Drawer supports up to two, optional, hard disk drives. See the Disks step of the ES/GS Common
Options section of this QuickSpec for the selection of supported disk drives.

NOTES:
Select the same power supply voltage variant for both Type A and Type B Power Distribution Units, e.g. both 200-
208V or both 380/415V.
IEC 309 is a general spec that can encompass 3 different pin types. The 3X-H7606-BA PDU uses the Hubbell
460P9W, a 4 pin connector.
The 3X-H7606-AA PDU uses an L21-30P 30 amp plug, Hubbell 2811, a 4 pin connector.
