1-2 Motherboard Features
At the heart of the SuperServer 5017C-MTF/5017C-MTRF lies the X9SCL-F, a single
processor motherboard based on Intel's C202 chipset. Below are the main features
of the X9SCL-F (see Figure 1-1 for a block diagram of the chipset).
Processors
The X9SCL-F supports a single Intel
®
Xeon
®
E3-1200 Series processor or a Core
TM
i3-2100 Series processor in an LGA1155 socket. Please refer to the motherboard
description pages on our web site for a complete listing of supported processors.
Memory
The X9SCL-F has four DIMM sockets that can support up to 32 GB of unbuffered
DDR3-1333/1066 memory. Please refer to Chapter 5 for installing memory.
Serial ATA
An on-chip SATA controller is integrated into the X9SCL-F to provide a six-port, 3
Gb/sec Serial ATA subsystem, which is RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 supported (RAID 5
supported with Windows OS only). The SATA drives are hot-swappable units. Note:
The operating system you use must have RAID support to enable the hot-swap
capability and RAID function of the SATA drives. Documentation on RAID setup
guidelines can be found on our web site.

The X9SCL-F features an integrated ATI video controller based on the Matrox
G200eW graphics chip, which has 16 MB of DDR2 memory.
