The IBM RS/6000* S70 Advanced Model S7A is a member of a new generation
of 64-bit, 4-way, 8-way, or 12-way, symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) enterprise
servers. The S70 Advanced provides the power, capacity, reliability, and
expandability to help move you into the next generation of mission-critical
commercial computing. With the S70 Advanced, you can manage the evolution
of your business into 64-bit computing while still supporting your existing
32-bit applications. The I/O subsystem will support 32-bit and 64-bit
standard PCI adapters. The S70 Advanced delivers a cost-efficient growth
path to the future through these attributes: 64-bit system scaleability;
4-way, 8-way, or 12-way--packaged on 3 processor cards (4 RS64 II processors
per card); 262 MHz system processors; and 8 MB of L2 ECC cache for each
262 MHz processor.
The I/O rack contains the first I/O drawer with:
- Service processor
- High-performance disk drive
- 32X Maximum speed CD-ROM
- 1.44 MB, 3.5-inch diskette drive
- Two PCI disk adapters
Up to three additional S70 Advanced I/O drawers can be added. Additional
I/O racks can also be ordered with the S70 Advanced. Existing RS/6000
7015 Model R00 racks or the 7014 Model S00 rack can also be used for additional
storage and communication drawers. This helps to protect your existing
investment in SSA or SCSI DASD.
A fully configured system would be a 12-way processor with:
- 32 GB of system memory
- 55 available PCI adapter slots
- 48 hot-pluggable disk bays
- 7 available media bays
