Avid Configuration Guidelines

HP Z800 Dual Six-Core / Dual Quad-Core CPU Workstation

Media Composer 6.0, Symphony 6.0, NewsCutter 10 and later

(To configure a Z800 for prior versions of Avid software see the earlier version Z800 guide posted on the Avid KB)

1.) HP Z800 AVID Qualified System Specification:

Z800 / AVID Qualified Operating System choices:

Microsoft® Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Edition with Service Pack 1

Z800 Hardware Configuration

Supported CPU Choices

1.) Dual Intel® 6-Core Xeon® X5650 Processors @ 2.66GHz 12MB cache / 1333MHz memory

2.) Dual Intel® Quad-Core Xeon® X5570 Processors @ 2.93GHz 8MB cache / 1333MHz memory

3.) Dual Intel® Quad-Core Xeon® X5550 Processors @ 2.66GHz 8MB cache / 1333MHz memory

**These processor selections have gone End-of-Life and are no longer available in new systems being purchased from H.P.

Video Card Choices

1.) NVIDIA Quadro 4000 2GB PCI-e video board (qualified with 6-core X5650 2.66Ghz processors)

2.) NVIDIA Quadro FX 3800 1GB PCI-e video board (qualified with 6-core X5650 2.66Ghz processors)

3.) NVIDIA Quadro FX 4800 1.5GB PCI-e video board (qualified with 4-core X5570 2.93Ghz and 4-core

X5550 2.66Ghz processors)

- 320GB (minimum) SATA-II 3Gb/s 7200RPM System Disk Drive

- Standard AVID memory configuration: 6GB (6 x 1GB) DDR3 1333 ECC memory –

(Requires six 1GB DIMMs, DIMM sizes cannot be mixed sizes)

1GB memory modules must be installed in the following memory slots:

CPU0-DIMM1, CPU0-DIMM3, CPU0-DIMM5

CPU1-DIMM1, CPU1-DIMM3, CPU1-DIMM5

Optional 12GB memory configurations:

1) Optional AVID memory configuration: 12GB (12 x 1GB) DDR3 1333 ECC memory –

(Requires twelve 1GB DIMMs, DIMM sizes cannot be mixed sizes)

1GB memory modules must be installed in the following memory slots:

CPU0-DIMM1, CPU0-DIMM2, CPU0-DIMM3, CPU0-DIMM4, CPU0-DIMM5, CPU0-DIMM6

CPU1-DIMM1, CPU1-DIMM2, CPU2-DIMM3, CPU3-DIMM4, CPU4-DIMM5, CPU5-DIMM6

2) Optional AVID memory configuration: 12GB (6 x 2GB) DDR3 1333 ECC memory –

(Requires six 2GB DIMMs, DIMM sizes cannot be mixed sizes)

2GB memory modules must be installed in the following memory slots:

CPU0-DIMM1, CPU0-DIMM3, CPU0-DIMM5

CPU1-DIMM1, CPU1-DIMM3, CPU1-DIMM5

Memory configuration constraints

No other memory configurations are formally supported in AVID environments. Only the 6GB (6 x 1GB),

and two 12GB configurations (12 x 1GB) and (6 x 2GB) configurations are supported. Memory

configurations which mix and match memory module sizes and locations will result in a poor performing,

non-optimal operating environment.

6.) Utilization of the Z800 embedded (on-board) 1394 ports for Camera / Deck / Disk Drive support

Media Composer / Symphony 6.0 and NewsCutter 10 do not support Avid 1394 hardware such as Adrenaline and

1394 Mojo-SDI. This simplifies utilization of the Z800 embedded 1394 ports. The embedded 1394 ports can and should be used

for all 1394 Camera / Deck / Disk Drive connectivity for all configurations running Media Composer / Symphony 6.0 and

NewsCutter 10.
