IMPORTANT: This manual is for Pentium II or Pentium III Xeon processor-
based servers only.
The Compaq ProLiant 5500 and 5500R server delivers breakthrough
performance and value in a space efficient form factor. Performance is
maximized with up to four Pentium II or Pentium III Xeon Processors, dual
peer PCI buses, and up to four gigabytes of buffered EDO ECC memory.
Input/output performance is enhanced by features such as Wide-Ultra SCSI-3
or Wide Ultra2 SCSI hard drives.
