-- all designed to help you capitalize on the e-business
revolution. With its two processor positions, the
p5-550 is available in 1-, 2-, and 4-way configurations.
The symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) uses state-of-the-art,
64-bit, copper-based POWER5 microprocessors. A 1-way
processor card running at 1.5 GHz, or a 2-way processor
card running at either 1.5 or 1.65 GHz are available.
The 1-way processor card has no Level 3 cache while
both 2-way processor cards have 36 MB of Level 3 cache.
The base 512 MB, of main memory can be expanded to
64 GB for faster performance and exploitation of 64-bit
addressing as used in large database applications.
The IBM p5-550 contains up to 11 bays. There are four
front-accessible, hot-swap-capable DASD bays in a
minimum configuration with an additional four hot-swap-capable
DASD bays optional. The eight DASD bays can accommodate
