NF5688M6: Source 8-Drive and 16-Drive Configurations

This compares the two configurations recorded in the stored source. It is a historical configuration reference, not a universal statement that every NF5688M6 has each optional component.

Configuration	8-Drive Configuration	16-Drive Configuration
CPU	2*Intel® Ice Lake CPU	2*Intel® Ice Lake CPU
Memory	32 × DDR4 RDIMM/LRDIMM	32 × DDR4 RDIMM/LRDIMM
RAID Card	0 or 1	1 or 2
SSD	8 NVMe	16 SATA/SAS
M.2 SSD	2	2
PCIe Card	8x 100G/200G IB Cards, 2x PCIe x16, 2x PCIe x8 Reserved	4x 100G/200G IB Cards, 2x PCIe x16 (RAID)
OCP3.0	1	1
Power Supply	6 × 3000 W PSUs, 3+3 Redundancy	6 × 3000 W PSUs, 3+3 Redundancy
Chassis Dimensions	6U,850mm	6U,850mm
Operating Ambient Temperature	5–35°C (source value; see qualification below)	5–35°C (source value; see qualification below)

Both original configuration views contain no instructional text requiring translation. The table’s counts and “reserved” designation are retained as written.

Source differences: this note lists 0 or1 RAID cards for the 8-drive build and 5–35°C ambient operation. The checked vendor Chinese hardware guide instead lists0 RAID cards for its NVMe8-drive example and10–35°C operating temperature; the official English white paper V1.0 (July29,2022), Tables4-1/6-2, likewise specifies10–35°C; its thermal appendix identifies35°C as the maximum for the listed configuration. Use the matching manual/SKU and thermal restrictions when designing or servicing a system; do not use the note’s5°C lower limit as an independently verified operating rating.
