While this broad product line offers IBM customers unparalleled flexibility, it can also make the tasks of selecting, configuring, or expanding systems seem complex and sometimes daunting. The following tables simplify the tasks of selecting, configuring, and expanding the various members of the Personal System/2 family. The information contained herein applies to all systems, displays, memory, and disk features introduced in the United States between April 1, 1987 and June 21, 1989. To assist in the system selection process, information is provided on the base system features, expandability, and usability. Much of what distinguishes an IBM system from that of the competition is a careful attention to the details of human factors design that cannot be measured with simple numbers; nonetheless, even comparisons of those traits that can be measured reveal the benefits of IBM's concern for every aspect of system design. Reliability, expandability, size, weight, noise output, power use, and electromagnetic radiation levels can and should be compared during the system selection process. In making the system selection decision, it is also important to consider performance. Therefore, it is important to understand why benchmarks and performance comparisons are not included in this guide and to place in context many of the performance indicators that are provided. Benchmarks are useful only to the extent that they are clearly recognized to be a limited measure of a specific component of a complex system. Rarely can any one benchmark, data point, or set of benchmarks crystallize the essence of system performance into a single comparative number. More often, they lead to misguided decisions based upon improper interpretations of system performance characteristics. Even worse, benchmarks are often used to justify inappropriate system selection criteria and weightings far removed from the realities of daily use. Total system throughput and application performance are comprised of many interrelated factors; a bottleneck in one system subcomponent can easily negate supposed performance benefits from another ultra-fast system subcomponent. Without a complete understanding of the interrelationships of every subcomponent of the systems, decision makers might be swayed by marketing pitches that emphasize the specifications of certain sub-optimized components or carefully selected benchmarks that often demonstrate performance characteristics unrelated to actual system throughput in daily use. No benchmark or single measurement should ever replace actual use or trial as the primary microcomputer system selection criterion. Another critical consideration is that benchmarks almost always single-mindedly exclude reliability comparisons from performance considerations. This rewards companies that design for performance over reliability. In general, during system design, performance can be bought at the expense of reliability. IBM designs to optimize system reliability and provide overall system throughput through balanced system design rather than to maximize individual component specifications. Thus, IBM systems will perform very well when measured by throughput or user perception of performance and extremely well when measured to include system integrity lapses as significant negative performance indicators. Finally, most benchmarks that have been published to date measure PS/2 performance under single-thread benchmarks that miss the entire design point of the multi-tasking, Micro Channel-based Personal System/2. It is somewhat analoguous to comparing a rocket to a jet plane using maximum attainable speed as the benchmark criterion. The jet may not perform like a rocket if orbiting the earth is the objective, but it will more likely meet the needs of those who are interested in destination flexibility and smooth take-offs and landings. We invite you to experience Personal System/2 ergonomics and performance first-hand before making system selection decisions and hope that this guide makes a valuable contribution towards helping you find the system and configuration that meets your needs. ====================================================================== CONTENTS TABLE 1.

Accessing memory outside the most recently used page (one page ≈ 2KB) requires one wait state. Writing data to memory also requires one wait state. Therefore, read access from the current page requires no wait states, read access outside the current page or a write to the current page require one wait state, and a write outside current page requires two wait states. *0 Includes IBM Space Saving Keyboard. *1 One available slot is a short slot, i.e. half-slot *2 Includes built-in display as part of base system. *3 Requires special consideration involving configuration and availability of conventional vs. extended, and/or expanded memory. You may need assistance in determining suitability to your needs. *4 To ensure proper operation of the diskette drive, this model requires the DASDDRVR.SYS device driver when running DOS 3.30. The driver is not required when running OS/2 or DOS 4.00. *5 Expansion adapter memory that runs at 120ns adds a wait state for processor access to that memory. *6 Requires the replacement of the standard 1MB module(s) on the system board with 2MB module(s). *7 128K of system memory is mapped for use by BIOS in order to improve system performance. *8 Expansion adapter memory and system board expansion memory are rated at 80ns or 85ns. *9 Includes 30ns 64K memory cache. Cached data is accessed with zero wait states. For even more demanding applications, the performance of the Model 70-A21 can be significantly enhanced via the The Personal System/2 (R) 486/25 Power Platform, Feature #5220, Part 6450876. This upgrade includes a 25MHz Intel i486 32-bit microprocessor that features an internal memory cache controller, an internal 8Kb cache, and an internal floating-point processing unit that performs the functions of an external 80387 Math Co-Processor. ╪ Withdrawn from marketing =============================================================================== TABLE 2. IBM Personal System/2 Memory Expansion Alternatives by Model =============================================================================== Applicable memory expansion features for each model * Memory expansion alternatives are either SIPs (Single In-line Packages) or Adapters. SIPs may be used to expand the system board (Planar) or adapters or both, as noted. * On all systems with more than 640K standard memory, the extra memory is system board memory mapped beginning at the 1MB address. On 80286-based systems, this memory can only be used as extended memory. On 80386SX and 80386-based systems, this memory is extended memory that can be used as expanded memory with the appropriate drivers. * Throughout all tables, x = any substitutable character, e.g. 857x-x61 = 8570-E61 and 8573-061. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table 2-A.

One 0.5MB Feature #3397, consisting of two 256K modules, can be added for a total of 1MB. Alternatively, the original system board SIPs can be replaced by one or two of the 2MB Feature #7833, each consisting of two 1MB modules, for a a total of 2MB or 4MB system board memory. Different size SIPs cannot be used together on the system board. * The ability to use a non-IBM memory expansion card in the Personal System/2 Model 30 286 is dependent on the flexibility of the card in establishing its starting memory address. To operate properly in the standard Model 30 286 with 512KB, a memory expansion adapter must support a starting memory address of 512KB. To operate properly in a Model 30 286 with 1MB, 2MB, or 4MB of system board memory, a memory expansion adapter must support a starting memory address of 384KB plus the amount of system board memory. * There are three AT-bus compatible slots available for adapter expansion. *1 The PS/2 Multifunction Adapter, Feature #8635 can only be used with the original 512KB of memory on the system board. Additional memory modules may be moved from the system board to the PS/2 Multifunction Adapter. Up to two PS/2 Multifunction Adapters may be installed, providing a maximum of 15MB of additional extended memory. This adapter does not support the IBM 3270 Workstation Program Versions 1.0 or 1.1 or the DOS 4.00 expanded memory drivers, but does support LIM EMS 4.0 when used in conjunction with Above Disc (R) 2.0, which is not included with the adapter and must be purchased separately (Order Vehicle 5871-AAA/Feature #5448/Part 30F5448). Above Disc (R) works under PC DOS Version 3.30 or higher. This adapter also includes one parallel and one serial port. When two Multifunction Adapters are installed in the same system, it is necessary to disable the serial port on the system board in order to achieve full operation of three parallel and two serial ports.

IBM OS/2 Extended Edition V1.1 Memory and Storage ========================================================================= Recommendations and Requirements The numbers shown in the following tables are the recommended memory and storage size in megabytes for concurrent (1) operation of the designated OS/2 functions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- OS/2 Extended Edition Components and Applications Recommended Recommended Memory Fixed Disk Size (MB) Space (MB) (2) (2) --------------------------------------------------- ------------- ------------- OPERATING SYSTEM Base Operating System, with Spooler 2.0 8.2 DOS Compatibility (3) 0.5 Swap File 2.5 (4) COMMUNICATIONS MANAGER Base (required for communications operations) 0.2 2.7 3270 Emulation 0.3 1.0 Asynchronous Terminal Emulation 0.3 0.3 APPC 0.4 File Transfer 0.3 (5) IBM Configuration Files 0.5 Configuration Services 1.5 Programming Interfaces 0.3 DATABASE MANAGER Database Services (required for database operations) 1.0 (6) 4.1 Query Manager 1.0 4.4 LOCAL AREA NETWORK (7) Communications Manager Requester 0.5 4.9 IBM OS/2 LAN Server Version 1.0 2.2 6.2 (8) APPLICATIONS (9) Word Processing 0.4 or more 1.0 or more Spreadsheet 0.5 or more 1.5 or more NOTES: (1) If you do not wish to concurrently execute all installed functions and applications, then the memory required will be less. In this case, the memory required would be the sum of the Operating System Base and the particular functions and applications the user wishes to execute concurrently as well as an allowance for user data. (2) These numbers reflect the working set of the OS/2 functions listed and not the total size of all of the code and data areas that comprise the functions. The quantities shown assume that an acceptable degree of segment swapping is occuring in the operational environment. To estimate memory requirements, add together the recommended memory size for the operating system base and each installed function and application together with an allowance for user data buffer requirements. Using less than the recommended memory size will increase the time to switch from one function to another, reduce throughput, and increase the size of the swap file. (3) Automatically installed; but may be removed by designating PROTECTONLY=YES in the CONFIG.SYS file. The DOS compatibility session itself uses no additional disk space; however, requirements for DOS compatiblity session applications should be obtained from the applications' supplier(s). (4) Testing indicates a 2.5MB swap file is typical; however more or less file space may be necessary. To improve disk performance and to reduce file cluster fragmentation, many users dedicate a 2-5MB fixed disk partition separate from data or program storage as the swap drive with SWAPPATH=d: in the CONFIG.SYS file. (5) Required per session for concurrent file transfer. (6) Memory size requirement is for a single database application. Subsequent applications require additional memory, but less than the first. (7) The Communications Manager must be installed for the LAN Requester or OS/2 LAN Server functions. (8) Includes the Communications Manager LAN Requester files which must be installed before the IBM OS/2 LAN Server. (9) All sizes are estimated and are application/user dependent. ========================================================================= TABLE 7.
