Preface This Technical Information Manual provides information for the IBM PC 300 Types 6584 and 6594. It is intended for developers who want to provide hardware and software products to operate with these IBM computers and provides an in-depth view of how these IBM computers work. Users of this publication should have an understanding of computer architecture and programming concepts.
When numerical modifiers such as K, M, and G are used, they typically indicate powers of 2, not powers of 10. For example, 1 KB equals 1 024 bytes (2 10), 1 MB equals 1 048 576 bytes (2 20), and 1 GB equals 1 073 741 824 bytes (230). When expressing storage capacity, MB equals 1 000 KB (1 024 000). The value is determined by counting the number of sectors and assuming that every two sectors equals 1 KB.
Chapter 1. System overview Chapter 1. System overview PC 300PL Types 6584 and 6594 are computer systems designed to provide state-of-the-art computing power with room for future growth.

Chapter 1. System overview Wake on Ring All models can be configured to turn on the computer after a ring is detected from an external or internal modem. The menu for setting the Wake on Ring feature is in the Configuration/Setup Utility program. Two options control this feature: Serial Ring Detect: Use this option if the computer has an external modem connected to the serial port. Modem Ring Detect: Use this option if the computer has an internal modem. Chapter 1.
Chapter 2. System board features Chapter 2. System board features This section includes information about system board features. For an illustration of the system board, see “System board, Types 6584 and 6594” on page 13. Pentium III microprocessor with MMX technology PC 300PL Types 6584 and 6594 come with an Intel Pentium III microprocessor. The microprocessor, which has an attached heat sink, plugs directly into a connector on the system board.
Chapter 2. System board features System memory The system memory interface is controlled by the Intel 820 chip set. Rambus dynamic random access memory (RDRAM) is standard. The maximum amount of addressable system memory is 1 GB. For memory expansion, the system board provides two Rambus inline memory module (RIMM) connectors. The system board also supports PC700 memory and PC800 memory RIMMs in sizes of 64 MB, 128 MB, 256 MB, and 512 MB. The amount of memory that is preinstalled varies by model.
