Latest processor technology

The PU-DLS motherboard supports the Intel

®

Xeon processor via dual

604-pin surface mount ZIF sockets. The processor features the Intel

®

NetBurst™ micro-architecture that includes hyper-threading technology, a
rapid execution engine, a 533/400MHz system bus, and an execution trace
cache to offer a significant increase in performance. See page 2-4 for more
information.

DDR memory support

Employing the Double Data Rate (DDR) memory technology, the PU-DLS
motherboard supports up to 12GB of system memory using PC2100/1600
registered ECC DDR DIMMs. The ultra-fast 266/200MHz memory bus
doubles the speed of the PC133/PC100 SDRAM to deliver the required
bandwidth for the latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications.

Advanced 64-bit PCI-X bus

The 64-bit/133MHz PCI-X bus onboard maximizes I/O bandwidth for the
next generation 64-bit PCI-X cards that support 133MHz bus. The PCI-X
specification 1.0a allows full peer-to-peer transactions between PCI buses
and provides options for intelligent I/O and server management cards.

Onboard LAN

The motherboard comes with the Intel

®

82540EM 32-bit PCI Gigabit

Ethernet controller, and the Intel

®

82544GC 64-bit PCI-X Gigabit Ethernet

controller, to fully support 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet Media
Access Control (IEEE 802.3 compliant), and provide Physical Layer
Transceiver solution for high performance network applications.

Dual-channel Ultra-320 SCSI

The Adaptec 7902W Ultra-320 SCSI controller and dual-channel SCSI
connectors are onboard to provide high-speed data transfers.

Zero-Channel RAID (ZCR) feature

One 64-bit PCI-X slot on the motherboard supports the Zero-Channel
RAID feature and multi-level RAID 0, 1, 5.
