Chipset.
2.2.1 PCIe Generation 2
PCIe Gen 2 provides the next generation of I/O bandwidth to the system. PCIe Gen2 doubles the signaling bit
rate of each lane from 2.5 GT/s to 5 GT/s.
2.2.2 DDR3 Memory Technology
Intel Xeon processor 5500 and 5600 series support new DDR3 memory technology, which replaces fully
buffered DIMMs in the new Intel architecture. Native DDR3 memory capability improves memory access
speed, lowers latency, and allows more memory capacity.
2.2.3 Next Generation Dell Embedded Server Management
The chart below shows the components of the new embedded server management capability. The
PowerEdge R510 default server management is the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC). iDRAC6 Express
and iDRAC6 Enterprise are offered as upgrade options. The iDRAC Express hosts the Lifecycle Controller and
Unified Server Configurator. Optional iDRAC6 Express and iDRAC6 Enterprise provide out-of-band
management capabilities and enable the optional vFlash.
