Hard Disk Drives

The server ships with two fixed drive trays for mounting SATA hard disk drives in the chassis. For

information on how to install these drives, see

Section 4.2, “Installing or Replacing a Hard Drive” on

page 47

.

Drives can consume up to 17 W of power each. Drives must be specified to run at a maximum

ambient temperature of 45° C.

Note:

The NSW1U Network Server does not support all SATA hard drives. For a list of

validated hard drive manufacturers and hard drive types, see the Tested Hardware and

Operating Systems List (THOL) on the Kontron support website at

http://us.kontron.com/support/. (

Search for NSW1U, click on Product Downloads, and

then Compatability Matrix.)

Riser Card Assembly

The S5000PHB server board implements a PCI super slot that contains the signals necessary for a

PCI/PCI-X* or PCI Express* (PCIe*) expansion slot. One of two different low-profile riser cards is

inserted into the super slot to access the appropriate signals and provide the appropriate connector

for a PCI/PCI-X or PCI Express riser card. The IP Network Server NSW1U is designed to accommodate

a full-length, full-height adapter card with the card’s I/O bracket accessible through an opening in the

rear panel of the system. (See

Figure 10

for this location.)

The PCI/PCI-X riser card supports speeds of 33 or 66 MHz PCI and 100 or 133 MHz PCI-X.

The PCI Express riser card implements a x8 link interface, and can be used with add-in cards that

implement x1, x4, or x8 interfaces.

The IP Network Server NSW1U supports either a PCI-X and a PCI-Express riser card.

2.9.1

PCI/PCI-X Riser Card

The PCI/PCI-X riser card supports one 3.3 V 64-bit slot and speeds of 33 or 66 MHz for PCI and 66,

100, or 133 MHz for PCI-X. The bus speed varies from 66 MHz to 100 MHz depending on the type of

PCI adapters configured in the PCI-X riser card. For detailed information about the pinouts and

electrical specifications, see the Kontron IP Network Server NSW1U Technical Product Specification.

2.9.2

PCI-Express Riser Card

PCI Express (PCIe) riser card implements a x8 link interface and can be used with add-in cards with

an x1, x4, or x8 interface. For detailed information about the pinouts and electrical specifications, see

the Kontron IP Network Server NSW1U Technical Product Specification.

2.10

Power Supply

The power subsystem can have up to two power supply modules capable of operating in redundant

mode and a power distribution board (PDB). A power supply filler panel for the empty power supply

site is supplied for systems without redundancy.

The power supply is rated for 450 W output capability in full AC or DC input voltage range.

2.11

System Cooling

There are three cooling areas in the NSW1U systems: front panel board area, PCI area, and the CPU/

Memory/HDD area.
