Product Information
Power Consumption and Cooling
This information is based on primary power consumptions.
1. A typical configuration includes: 1 CPU, 4 GB RAM (4 x 1 GB), 700W power supply, 2 hard drives, 1
medium power AGP, and 1 optical drive.
2. A maximum configuration (fully loaded) includes: 2 CPUs, 32 GB RAM (8 x 4 GB), 700W power supply,
4 hard drives, 1 high end AGP, and 3 optical drives.
Environmental Specifications
Operating temperature and humidity ranges may vary depending on the installed mass storage
devices. High humidity levels can cause improper disk operation. Low humidity levels can
aggravate static electricity problems and cause excessive wear of the disk surface.
