SuperMicro X6DA8-G2 (I7525), Continued

Since Supermicro decided to submit a whole workstation system for review, we did not have more to photograph than the manual and the driver disk.

There are 52 disks and 12 manuals that provide software for almost all environments one can imagine. Drivers include Linux Suse and Redhat, Windows, Netware, DOS and Open Unix / LinuxWare.

Thanks to the Super Doctor III, the system is monitored via software while administrators will get access over any available IP networks.

If the selected temperature (the minimum is 85°C) is exceeded, an audio warning will be triggered, while the system is automatically halted. As soon as the temperature level drops below the threshold, the system will continue working as if nothing happened.
