Product Brief Intel(R) Server Systems SR1500AL, SR1550AL, and SR2500AL Intel(R) Server Systems SR1500AL, SR1550AL, and SR2500AL A Family of Rack-Optimized, Highly-Integrated Server Systems Designed for Flexible, High-Density Server Solutions * The 2U systems handle more demanding departmental database, datacenter, and other high-transaction applications Product Overview This is Intel's latest generation of enterprise-level, rackoptimized system level solutions. Processing power, reliable memory infrastructure, and redundant networking are critical requirements in growing companies, as well as higher flexibility in data storage and security. The rack-optimized systems from Intel provide different levels of power and cooling redundancy and flexible storage solutions including 2.5"/3.5" SATA or SAS drives, as well as support for both tape drives and optical drives. These systems designed for space-constrained environments are optimized in either a 1U, 1U with redundant power, or a 2U form-factor. * The 1U systems are designed for organizations running front-end Internet, Web-hosting, and HPC applications The Intel(R) Server Systems SR1500AL, S1550AL, and SR2500AL each include the Intel(R) Server Essentials CD pack, a suite of software applications that are designed to help reduce the complexity of deploying and managing Intel Server Systems. The Intel Server Essentials CD pack is comprised of Intel(R) Deployment Assistant, a graphical tool aimed at simplifying the process of setting up and deploying an Intel server, and Intel(R) System Management Software, a comprehensive software suite designed by Intel and Microsoft to provide local and remote sever management functionality specifically for small- and medium-sized businesses. The software included in the Intel Server Essentials CD pack simplifies your server setup and can help you not only manage your servers but your entire IT infrastructure. This family of systems is also designed for increased uptime and tool-less serviceability. Over 10,000+ hours of testing and validation were done, not only with other building blocks from Intel, but also with thirdparty peripherals and memory to assure compatibility and reliability.

flow to each processor, maximizing system performance. * Fully buffered DIMM memory increases capacity and memory bandwidth to keep pace with the processor and I/O performance enhancements. * Intel(R) 64 architecture5 extends the amount of available server memory. * Intel(R) I/O Acceleration Technology (Intel(R) I/OAT) is a platform innovation that helps get network data to and from server applications faster, while consuming far fewer CPU cycles. * Intel(R) Virtualization Technology6 turns a physical server into multiple systems (virtual machines) allowing multiple operating systems and applications to run inside a single platform. * Execute Disable Bit7 reduces exposure to viruses and prevents harmful software from executing on the server or network. * Enhanced Intel SpeedStep(R) Technology allows processors to adjust their operating speeds to meet varying performance needs, while balancing power consumption.

Refer to http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/s5000pal for up-to-date details on processors supported by each server board. RAID 5 available post launch by adding the AXXRAKSW5 activation key. 1333 MHz support may require updates that may not be available at launch. 4 The Intel(R) Adaptive slot has the following options: 1U Options: 1 x PCI X 133 MHz or 1 x PCI Express*; 2U Options: 3 x PCI X 133MHz (via Active Riser) or 3 x PCI X up-to 100 MHz or 2 x PCI Express and 1 x PCI X 133 MHz 5 64-bit computing on Intel architecture requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers and applications enabled for Intel(R) 64 architecture. Processors will not operate (including 32-bit operation) without an Intel(R) 64 architecture-enabled BIOS. Performance will vary depending on your hardware and software configurations. Consult with your system vendor for more information. 6 Intel(R) Virtualization Technology requires a computer system with an enabled Intel(R) processor, BIOS, virtual machine monitor (VMM) and for some uses, certain platform software enabled for it. Functionality, performance or other benefits will vary depending on hardware and software configurations. Intel Virtualization Technology-enabled BIOS and VMM applications are currently in development. 7 Enabling Execute Disable Bit functionality requires a PC with a processor with Execute Disable Bit capability and a supporting operating system. Check with your PC manufacturer on whether your system delivers Execute Disable Bit functionality. 8 Can be upgraded via a Remote Management Module, order code AXXRMM.
