2.2.6 PCI Express Generation 2
PCI Express is a serial pointtopoint interconnect for I/O devices. PCIe Gen2 doubles the signaling bit
rate of each lane from 2.5 Gb/s to 5 Gb/s. Each of the PCIe Gen2 ports is backwardscompatible with
Gen1 transfer rates.
2.2.7 Internal Redundant SD Module
The Internal SD Module is dedicated for an SD Flash Card with embedded Hypervisor for
virtualization. The SD Flash Card contains a bootable OS image for virtualized platforms.
The persistent storage solution on the M910 allows for redundant SD cards.
2.2.8 iDRAC6 Express
The iDRAC6 Express feature set is a managed persistent storage space for server provisioning data. It
consists of 1 GB flash and vFlash (an optional externally accessible SD card). vFlash offers the hot-
swap portability and increased storage capacity benefits of SD while still being managed by the
system.
