• RAID 60 allows administrators to split the RAID storage across multiple external boxes. It requires a
minimum of eight drives, but only four will be available for data.
• Advanced Capacity Expansion (ACE) automates higher capacity migration using capacity
transformation to remove logical drives by shrinking and then expanding them online. Standard
drive migration and expansion remain unchanged.
• Mirror Splitting and Recombining in Offline Mode breaks a RAID 1 configuration into two RAID 0
configurations. This is similar to a scaled down rollback functionality that requires two disk drives.
• Drive Erase completely erases physical disks or logical volumes. This capability is useful when
decommissioning, redeploying, or returning hard drives.
• Video On Demand Performance Optimization optimizes performance of video on demand and
improves latency during video streaming.

NOTE:
At a minimum, a 256 MB cache and battery kit is required to enable the SAAP
license key. SAAP is not available on Zero Memory Configurations.
Networking technologies
The NC522SFP is a Dual Port 10GbE eight lane (x8) PCI Express (PCIe) 10 Gigabit network adapter.
It is supported on most ProLiant G6 servers. The NC522SFP uses two SFP+ (Small Form-factor
Pluggable) connector cages, providing connectivity in copper or fiber optic environments. For
complete specifications on this and other HP network adapter products, go to

Power and thermal technologies
HP engineers have developed a robust set of power and thermal technologies, and components to
manage power in ProLiant 100-series G6 servers. The technologies improve power efficiency
throughout the power delivery chain in several ways:
• Efficient power delivery
• Improved thermal sensors and fan control
• Phase shedding
• Managing processor technologies
• Managing memory technologies
• Managing I/O technologies
• Power efficiency mode
Administrators can disable certain components and capabilities in ProLiant 100-series G6 servers or
reduce capabilities to bring the components to a lower power state.
Efficient power delivery
Power supplies for ProLiant 100-series G6 servers are not hot-pluggable. Common Slot power
supplies are an option in those G6 platforms supporting the Common Slot architecture. Those G6
