Its configuration is as follows: ASUS PCI/I-P54TP4 motherboard w/100Mhz Pentium, 512k cache 128MB of main memory (60nsec "wide" SIMMS). 3 Adaptec AHA-2940 SCSI controllers (PCI) 1 Compex ENET32 (DC21040 based) 32bit ethernet (PCI) 1 Generic VGA card 14 attached SCSI drives of various types, typically 2.7GB & 4.3GB. The machine is housed in a industrial rack mount chassis with one CPU cabinet and three disk drive cabinets. Average number of users logged in at any point in time seems to hover around 300, though it can peak as high as 350 during rush hour.
