Product Guide – NEC Express5800/120Rd-1October 20036KEY PRODUCT FEATURES & USER BENEFITSNext-generation Xeon Processing and Enhanced System ArchitectureNEC Express5800/120Rd-1 is built to take full advantage of the latest Xeon processors2.4BGHz with 512KB cache, 3.06GHz with 512KB cache and 3.20GHz with 1MB cache.These processors are packaged in the new FC-mPGA2 form factor, a 603-pin socket version ofthe Xeon.The design of NEC Express5800/120Rd-1 is built upon a 533MHz Front Side Bus (FSB), theE7501 chipset from Intel and DDR266 SDRAM memory. The Intel Xeon processor for dual-processing servers offers users several new system performance boosts, with Hyper-Threadingtechnology and the E7501 server chipset.The Intel E7501 chipset supports DDR memory technology and is optimized for the Intel Xeonprocessor. The new chipset will accelerate memory access to increase platform performance anddeliver new levels of performance for I/O intensive server applications.This chipset also allows increased throughput and enhanced overall system performancethrough the high-performance 533MHz FSB and full-speed 266MHz memory access.The I/O subsystem of NEC Express5800/120Rd-1 is built on a 3 peer PCI bus architecture thatprovides concurrency of data transfers between the different high speed I/O channels and CPUor memory. I/O traffic is balanced as follows:- First PCI bus (32-bit): ATA-100 controller, IDE, graphics and I/O ports- Second PCI bus (64-bit): dual-port LAN and 1x 64-bit PCI slots- Third PCI bus (64-bit): Ultra 320 SCSI channels and 1x 64-bit PCI slotsImproved Memory ArchitectureNEC Express5800/120Rd-1 offers 6 DIMM sockets for industry-standard 128MB, 256MB,512MB, 1GB or 2GB SDRAM DDR266 DIMM. NEC Express5800/120Rd-1 allows easyexpansion of system’s capabilities to memory-intensive environments (scalability up to 12GB)and comes standard with 9-bit parity/ECC 266MHz SDRAM for maximum data integrity.The memory controller supports memory scrubbing, single-bit error correction and multiple-bit error detection and chip kill is supported. Memory can be implemented with either singlesided (one row) or double-sided (two row) DIMMs.Chipkill Correct MemoryNEC Express5800/120Rd-1 supports Chipkill Correct Memory architecture. Chipkill givesthe memory system the ability to withstand a multibit failure within a DRAM device,including a failure that causes incorrect data on all data bits of the device.
