PCI-E 2.0 doubles the bus standard's bandwidth from 2.5 Gbit/s to 5 Gbit/s, meaning a x32 connector can transfer data at up to 16 GB/s in each direction. PCI-E 2.0 also features improvements to the point-to-point data transfer protocol and its software architecture.

TPM function is optional due to different regional policy
TPM (Trusted Platform Module) can enhance data and network security, from your personal drive, E-mails, file system to the client-server environment. TPM improve your data flow security by hardware and software.

Intel^® Active Management Technology provides IT departments with remote client manageability, out-of-band (OOB) diagnostics and assets tracking which remotely manage platforms regardless of system power or OS state to help reduce TCO and improve productivity.

Intel^® Matrix Storage Technology, can deliver up to 80% faster storage performance with PCs equipped with two hard drives using RAID 0 data striping. Using RAID 1 data mirroring can protect against a hard drive failure by mirroring all data among two hard drives. In addition RAID 5 offers the fault-tolerant capability to automatically back up your most important files, while also providing faster disk access and adding storage capacity.

SATA 3Gb/s저장 인터페이스의 전송폭이 초당1.5Gb에서 초당3Gb로 향상되었다. SATA 3Gb/s는 SATA속도를 두배로 향상시켰고 또한 훨씬 전송폭의 활용이 효율적이고 데이터 백업 및 저장 능력이 강화되었다.

기가바이트(Gigabit)LAN은 기존의 초고속 네트워크를 제공하여 연결 대역폭을 최고 1,000 Mbps까지 지원하고 광대역을 제공할 때 네트워크 연결을 최적화해준다. 또한 네트워크를 연결할 때 사용자가 동영상 또는 음악을 제공하는 홈페이지를 브라우징해도 막히거나 끊김 현상이 전혀 없다.
