The p5-520 and p5-520Q have POWER5+™ processors which provide performance and
reliability advances (or enhancements) over the POWER5™ architecture that it replaces.
Chief among the enhancements is 90 nm processor fabrication technology.

The p5-520 processor is packaged as a 1-core single-core module running at 1.65 GHz with
no L3 cache or as a 1-core single-core module running at 2.1 GHz with 36 MB of L3 cache or
a 2-core dual-core module running at 1.65 or 1.9 or 2.1 GHz with 36 MB of L3. The p5-520Q
offers the same features but comes with a 4-core POWER5+ quad-core module running at
1.5 or 1.65 GHz with two 36 MB of L3 caches.

The p5-520 and p5-520Q include four front-accessible, hot-swap capable disk bays in a
minimum configuration with an additional four hot-swap capable disk bays as an optional
feature. The eight disk bays can accommodate up to 2.4 TB of disk storage using the 300 GB
Ultra320 SCSI disk drives. Other features included in the p5-520 and p5-520Q are six
hot-plug PCI-X slots with Enhanced Error Handling (EEH), integrated service processor,
integrated 10/100/1000 Mbps two-port Ethernet, two system, two USB, and two Hardware
Management Console (HMC) ports, integrated dual-channel Ultra320 SCSI controller,
hot-swappable power and cooling, and optional redundant power.
