Disclaimers
When ordering two processors, the second processor must be the same as the first. Intel processor
numbers are not a measurement of higher performance. Processor numbers differentiate features
within each processor family, not across different processor families. See:

Quad-Core, Six-Core, Eight-Core, 10-Core, 12-Core, 14-Core, 16-Core, 18-core and 22-Core
technologies are designed to improve performance of multithreaded software products and hardwareaware multitasking operating systems and may require appropriate operating system software for full
benefits; check with software provider to determine suitability; Not all customers or software
applications will necessarily benefit from use of these technologies.
64-bit computing on Intel 64 architecture requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS,
operating system, device drivers, and applications enabled for Intel 64 architecture. Processors will
not operate (including 32-bit operation) without an Intel 64 architecture-enabled BIOS. Performance
will vary depending on your hardware and software configurations. See:

Power Supply
Choice of:
850W 88% Efficient wide-ranging, active Power Factor Correction
1125W 90% Efficient wide-ranging, active Power Factor Correction
NOTE: The 1125W (1450W at 200V Input Voltage) power supply can also supply 1275W of output
power when the input voltage is greater than 105V. If the input voltage is less than 105V, but greater
than 90V for any reason, the maximum power that can be drawn is 1125W. An uninterruptible power
supply (UPS) is highly recommended if 1275W output power is desired.
The 1125W Power Supply can also supply 1450W of output power when the input voltage is greater
than 200V under all conditions.

This kit converts two of the native 3.5" HDD bays to enable four SFF (2.5") HDDs or SSDs. Once the kit is
installed, it enables independent, tool-free access for these SFF drives. Enterprise class SAS HDDs
(15mm) are also supported. Up to two modules are supported in the Z840, which enables up to 8 SFF
drives to be added to the internal section of the Z840. HDDs and SSDs are supported with up to 6Gb/s
bandwidth.

NOTE: SATA hardware RAID is supported on Linux systems that have support for the Intel RSTe
technology. The Linux kernel, with built-in software RAID, provides excellent functionality and
performance. It is a good alternative to hardware-based RAID. Please visit
http://www.hp.com/support/linux_hardware_matrix for RAID capabilities with Linux.
LSI RAID Definitions:

NOTES:
For details on the supported memory configurations on the HP Z840 Workstation, please refer to the
System Technical Specifications - System Board section of this document.
DIMMs should be equally distributed across all four memory channels for optimal performance.
Each processor supports up to 4 channels of DDR4 memory. To realize full performance at least 1 DIMM
must be inserted into each channel.
The CPUs determine the speed at which the memory is clocked. For example, if a 1600MT/s capable
CPU is used in the system, the maximum speed the memory will run at is 1600MT/s regardless of the
specified speed of the memory.
MT/s = Million Transfers per second
You cannot intermix LR DIMMs with Registered DIMMs. The system will not work.
The Z840 is designed to work ONLY with DDR4 memory. The system will not work with DDR3 memory.

NOTE: The 1125W (1450W at 200V Input Voltage) power supply can also supply 1275W of output power
when the input voltage is greater than 105V. If the input voltage is less than 105V, but greater than 90V for
any reason, the maximum power that can be drawn is 1125W. An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is
highly recommended if 1275W output power is desired.
The 1125W Power Supply can also supply 1450W of output power when the input voltage is greater than
180V under all conditions.

HP Vision Diagnostics Offline Edition

The diagnostics utility enables you to perform testing and to view critical computer hardware and
software configuration information from various sources. This utility enables you to:
Run diagnostics
View the hardware configuration of the system
Key features and benefits

HP Vision Diagnostics simplifies the process of effectively identifying, diagnosing, and isolating the
hardware issues. In addition to robust management tools, service tools can be invaluable in quickly
resolving system problems. To streamline the service process and resolve problems quickly, it is
necessary to have the right information available at the time that a service call is placed. The primary
information requirement, which is also the one that provides the greatest Vision into potential system
issues, is the configuration of the system. Vision Diagnostics helps provide higher system availability.
Typical uses of the Vision Diagnostics are:
Testing and diagnosing apparent hardware failures

Documenting system configurations for upgrade planning, standardization, inventory
tracking, disaster recovery, and maintenance
Sending configuration information to another location for more in-depth analysis
Access Panel Key Lock
Yes, prevents removal of the access panel and all internal components including optical and floppy
drives
ACPI-Ready Hardware
Advanced Configuration and Power Management Interface (ACPI).
Allows the system to wake from a low power mode.
