Features and specifications
The following information is a summary of the features and specifications of the
server. Depending on the server model, some features might not be available, or
some specifications might not apply.
Notes:
1. Racks are marked in vertical increments of 4.45 cm (1.75 inches). Each
increment is referred to as a unit, or “U.” A 1-U-high device is 4.45 cm (1.75
inches) tall.
2. Power consumption and heat output vary depending on the number and type
of optional features that are installed and the power-management optional
features that are in use.
3. The sound levels were measured in controlled acoustical environments
according to the procedures specified by the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) S12.10 and ISO 7779 and are reported in accordance with ISO
9296. Actual sound-pressure levels in a given location might exceed the average
values stated because of room reflections and other nearby noise sources. The
declared sound-power levels indicate an upper limit, below which a large
number of computers will operate.
4. When you add an optional memory expansion module to your server
configuration and you plan to use the optional USB flash device with VMware
ESXi embedded hypervisor software, see the documentation that comes with
the USB flash device and the operating system installation instructions for
installing ESXi (or ESX, depending on your environment) on your server at
