i An EM64T enabled workstation should provide leading performance for many 32-bit applications. Although not all 32-bit applications may run as normal when you decide to change to a 64-bit operating system, many will, providing excellent flexibility. It is advised to pre-test your applications by visiting Microsofts 64-bit 120 day free trial before you order EM64T (www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/64bit/evaluation/trial.mspx). EM64T requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers and applications enabled for Intel 64bit processor will not operate (including 32-bit operation) without a 64-bit enabled BIOS. Performance will vary depending on your hardware and software configurations. See www.intel.com/info/em64t for more information including details on which processors support Intel EM64T or consult with your system vendor for more information. ii Hyper-Threading (HT) Technology requires a computer system with an Intel Xeon processor supporting HT Technology and an HT Technology enabled chipset, BIOS, and operating system. Performance will vary depending on the specific hardware and software you use. See http://www.intel.com/info/hyperthreading/ for more information including details on which processors support HT Technology. iii Hardware RAID is not supported on Linux systems. The Linux kernel, with built-in software RAID, provides excellent functionality and performance. It is a good alternative to hardware-based RAID. Please visit http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00060684/c00060684.pdf for RAID capabilities with Linux. iv SATA 3 Gb/s drives perform as SATA 1.5 Gb/s using integrated controller, Native Command Queuing (NCQ) is not enabled
