SE7221BK1-E Technical Product Specification The maximum memory capacity is 4 GB Note* Although the Intel® Server Board SE7221BK1-E supports a maximum memory capacity of 4 GB, system resources consume roughly 750 MB of physical memory in the maximum memory configuration. As a result, when 4 GB of memory is used, the amount of memory made available to the operating system is significantly lower than 4 GB; roughly 3200 MB. THIS IS ONLY AN ISSUE WHEN 4 GB OF MEMORY IS USED.

SE7221BK1-E Technical Product Specification 6. ACPI Implementation 6.1 ACPI An ACPI-aware operating system generates an SMI to request that the system be switched into ACPI mode. The BIOS responds to enable ACPI mode. The system automatically returns to legacy mode upon hard reset or power-on reset. The SE7221BK1-E platform supports S0, S1, S4, and S5 states.
SE7221BK1-E Technical Product Specification supply through an inverter, and then transition to an ON state. Power Button On to Off (Legacy): The ICH6 is configured to generate an SMI due to a power button event. The BIOS services this SMI and sets the state of the machine in the ICH6 and Super IO to the OFF state. Power Button On to Off (ACPI): If an ACPI operating system is loaded, the power button switch generates a request (via SCI) to the OS to shutdown the system.

SE7221BK1-E Technical Product Specification 12.3 Chassis Intrusion The Intel® Server Board SE7221BK1-E supports a chassis security feature that detects if the chassis cover is removed. For the chassis intrusion circuit to function, the chassis’ power supply must be connected to AC power. The security feature uses a mechanical switch on the chassis that attaches to the chassis intrusion connector. When the chassis cover is removed the mechanical switch is in the closed position. 13.
