1-2 Serverboard Features
At the heart of the SuperServer 6016T-6RFT+/6016T-6RF+ lies the X8DTU-6TF+/
X8DTU-6F+, a dual processor serverboard based on the Intel® 5520 chipset. Below
are the main features of the serverboard. (See Figure 1-1 for a block diagram of
the chipset).
Processors
The X8DTU-6TF+/X8DTU-6F+ supports single or dual Intel® 5500/5600 Series
processors in LGA1366 sockets. Please refer to our web site for a complete listing
of supported processors.
Memory
The X8DTU-6TF+/X8DTU-6F+ features 18 DIMM sockets that can support up to 288
GB of registered ECC DDR3-1333/1066/800 or 48 GB of unbuffered ECC/non-ECC
DDR3-1333/1066/800 SDRAM. Please refer to Chapter 5 for installing memory.
UIO
The X8DTU-6TF+/X8DTU-6F+ is a specially-designed serverboard that features
Supermicro's UIO (Universal I/O) technology. UIO serverboards have a PCI Ex-

SAS ports, SATA ports, additional LAN ports or other additional functions to the
serverboard. This allows the user to tailor the serverboard to their own needs.
Note: the server does not come with a UIO card installed.

bus termination and confi guration settings.
Note: The operating system you use must have RAID support to enable the
hot-swap capability and RAID function of the SAS drives. RAID 0, 1, 5, 6,
10, 50 and 60 is supported. Refer to the following ftp site for setup guidelines
