Facts:

Processors

  • Up to two Intel Xeon processors E5-2600 v3 Series (Haswell-EP) CPU's
    • E5-2699 v3 @ 2.3Ghz Intel, 18-core, 45MB L3 cache, 145W
  • 2 Integrated DDR4 Memory Controllers per processor with 4x channels per processor, up to 3x DIMMs per channel,
  • Haswell-EP CPUs also incorporate Integrated Voltage Regulators (IVR)
  • Intel Quick-Path Interconnect (QPI) architecture for inter-CPU communication 9.6Gt/sec, Digital Media Interface (DMI) chip-to-chip connection to the Wellsburg PCH.
  • DMI is a high-speed interface which integrates advanced priority-based servicing allowing for concurrent traffic and true isochronous transfer capabilities.
  • 8, 10, 12, or 18 Core CPUs with Turbo Boost mode and Hyper-Threading Chipset
  • dual-threaded Haswell cores

Memory

  • Up to 12x DIMMs per processor for a maximum of 24x DDR4 2133Mhz RDIMM/LRDIMMs, a maximum of 768GB of memory in dual-processor systems.
  • A maximum of 12x DIMMs for a maximum of 384GB in single-processor systems.
  • Each CPU controller has 2 Integrated Memory Controllers (IMC) with 2 Home Agent (HA) data buffers
  • Each Home Agent (HA) buffer has 2 DDR4 DIMM channels, supporting 3 DIMMs per channel with speeds up to 2133MT/s.
  • DRAM speeds of 1333, 1600, 1867,and 2133 depnding upon configuration and memory type.
  • 16 or 32GB DIMM size capacity

 

Disks & Storage

  • NX5-2 comes in two storage configurations
  • The disk connectors in disk bays 0, 1, 2, and 3 are dual technology connectors. When a SAS device is plugged in, the SAS portion of the connector will drive the SAS device. If that SAS device is removed and replaced with a NVMe device, the NVMe switch card will now drive the NVMe SSD.  If a customer orders the NVMe solution, both the SAS and NVMe cables will be installed to the disk backplane.  At this time, NVMe is not a bootable solution.
    • 6 disk config:
      • 6x 2.5" 600GB SAS3, or 1.2GB SAS3 HDD hot-swappable with RAID enabled
      • 6x 2.5" 400GB SSD SAS3 drives hot-swappable with RAID enabled
      • 4x drives can optionally be NVMe PCIe 3.0 SSD 1.6TB drives (slots 0, 1, 2, and 3 only - NOT BOOTABLE), through SAS3 switch card only
      • Optional DVD

      NX5-2_6HDD_Numbering

    • 8 disk config:
      • 8x 2.5" 600GB SAS3, or 1.2GB SAS3 HDD hot-swappable with RAID enabled
      • 8x 2.5" 400GB SSD SAS3 Drives hot-swappable with RAID enables
      • 4x drives can optionally be NVMe PCIe 3.0 SSD 1.6TB drives (slots 0, 1, 2, and 3 only - NOT BOOTABLE), through SAS3 switch card only

      NX5-2_8HDD_Numbering

  • RAID card has 128MB of write cache, SuperCap backup, Aspen LSI based
    • Part Number 7085209
    • The card will be installed in PCIe slot 6 at the factory and cabled to the disk back plane.
    • The cables to the on-board LSI3008 will not be installed.
  • NVMe Disks notes
    • 8-port 12Gbps SAS PCI Express Switch HBA to support NVMe drives, in PCI slot 5 only
    • NVMe Disks are not bootable
    • Part Number7096186
    • If four NVMe disks are installed, SAS disk in slot 4 will be the first bootable disk.
  • Flash Accelerator F160 NVMe Card, 1.6 TB eMLC (AURA 3.0)
