(*) Memory/storage and options for Datacenter models will be included as defined by customer
requirements through the Special Bid process.

Note: All AX models are to be ordered via an IBM Special Bid process, and all
Datacenter solutions require an IBM Solutions Assurance Review, to ensure
compliance with the Datacenter certified solution.
