Chapter 1: Introduction
1-3 Server Chassis Features
The 1020S-8 is a high-end, scaleable server platform. The following is a general
outline of the main features of the SC813S+-500 server chassis.
System Power
The SC813S+-500 features a single redundant 500W power supply. If it fails, the
system will shut down and you will need to replace the power supply unit.
SCSI Subsystem
The SCSI subsystem supports up to six 80-pin SCA Ultra320 SCSI hard drives,
which are hot-swappable. Any standard 3.5" drives are supported. SCA = Single
Connection Attachment.) The SCSI drives are connected to a duale channel SCA
backplane with SAF-TE. A RAID controller card can be used with the SCA back-
plane to provide data security.
Note: The operating system you use must have RAID support to enable the hot-
swap capability of the SCSI drives.
PCI Expansion Slots
The SC813S+-500 chassis supports the use of one low profi le expansion card
(PCI-X 133 MHz or PCI-Express x8) and one full-height, half-length expansion card
(PCI-X 100 MHz or PCI-Express x8). (PCI-X riser cards have been preinstalled,
PCI-E riser cards are sold separately.)
Front Control Panel
The control panel provides you with system monitoring and control. LEDs indicate
system power, HDD activity, network activity and overheat/fan fail. A main power
button and a system reset button are also included.
I/O Backplane
The I/O backplane on the SC813S+-500 provides two PCI expansion slots, one
COM port, a VGA port, two USB 2.0 ports, PS/2 mouse and keyboard ports and
two gigabit Ethernet ports.
