Accessible capacity is less; up to 3GB isused in service partition. Actual storage capacity will varybased upon many factors and may be less than stated.Performance is in Internal Throughput Rate (ITR) ratio basedon measurements and projections using standard IBMbenchmarks in a controlled environment. The actualthroughput that any user will experience will depend onconsiderations such as the amount of multiprogramming in theuser’s job stream, the I/O configuration, the storageconfiguration and the workload processed. Therefore, noassurance can be given that an individual user will achievethroughput improvements equivalent to the performance ratiosstated here.Maximum internal hard disk and memory capacities mayrequire the replacement of any standard hard drives and/ormemory and the population of all hard disk bays and memoryslots with the largest currently supported drives available.When referring to variable speed CD-ROMs, CD-Rs, CD-RWsand DVDs, actual playback speed will vary and is often lessthan the maximum possible.XSO03094-USEN-03
