Dell™ PowerEdge™ 2450 computer systems are compact, high-speed servers that

offer significant service and upgrade features. These systems include the following

service features to make troubleshooting and repair easy and effective:



Dell Diagnostics, which checks for hardware problems (if the system can boot)



Embedded server management hardware, which monitors temperatures and

voltages throughout the system and notifies you if the system overheats, if a sys-

tem cooling fan malfunctions, or a power supply fails

The Dell PowerEdge 2450 system chassis simplifies removing and replacing com-

puter components. You can perform processor and memory upgrades without

removing the system board. The Dell-designed small computer system interface

(SCSI) backplane board and hard-disk drive carriers eliminate the extensive cabling

and drive configuration usually required for a SCSI subsystem.

The following upgrade options are offered for PowerEdge 2450 systems:



Additional microprocessors



Additional memory



An optional redundant power supply



An integrated redundant arrays of independent disks (RAID) controller that sup-

ports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, and 10



A SCSI backplane daughter card for split SCSI backplane support



A SCSI backplane extender board to support a fifth SCSI hard-disk drive in the

peripheral bay



A variety of expansion-card options



A Dell OpenManage™ Remote Assistant Card 2 (DRAC 2) for advanced server

management
