July 7, 2025

Ahsay™ Universal Backup System only supports the "i386" and "amd64" processor architecture.

FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE Hardware Notes

The following is a list of supported processors for "AMD64" type processors:

  • AMD Athlon™64 ("Clawhammer")
  • AMD Opteron™64 ("Sledgehammer")
  • AMD Sempron™
  • AMD Turion™
  • AMD Phenom™
  • All multi-core Intel Xeon™ processors except Sossaman have EM64T support
  • The single-core Intel Xeon processors "Nocona", "Irwindale", "Potomac", and "Cranford" have EM64T support
  • All Intel Core 2 (not Core Duo) and later processors
  • All Intel® Core™ i range of processors
  • All Intel Pentium® D processors
  • All Intel® Centrino® Duo and Centrino® Pro platforms
  • Intel Pentium 4s and Celeron Ds using the "Cedar Mill" core have EM64T support
  • Some Intel Pentium 4s and Celeron Ds using the "Prescott" core have EM64T support. Please read the Intel Processor Spec Finder for the definitive answer about EM64T support in Intel processors.
AhsayUBS supports a maximum of 256 virtual processor cores. Please refer to Backup System Requirements for details of processor core configuration.

The following is a list of supported processors for "i386" type processors:

  • FreeBSD/i386 runs on a wide variety of "IBM PC compatible" machines. Due to the wide range of hardware available for this architecture, it is impossible to exhaustively list all combinations of equipment supported by FreeBSD. Nevertheless, some general guidelines are presented here.
  • Almost all i386™-compatible processors with a floating point unit are supported. All Intel® processors beginning with the 80486 are supported, including the 80486, Pentium®, Pentium® Pro, Pentium® II, Pentium® III, Pentium® 4, and variants thereof, such as the Xeon™ and Celeron® processors. All i386™-compatible AMD processors are also supported, including the Am486®, Am5x86®, K5, AMD-K6® (and variants), AMD Athlon™ (including Athlon-MP, Athlon-XP, Athlon-4, and Athlon Thunderbird), and AMD Duron™ processors. The AMD Élan SC520 embedded processor is supported. The Transmeta Crusoe is recognized and supported, as are i386™-compatible processors from Cyrix and NexGen.
  • There is a wide variety of motherboards available for this architecture. Motherboards using the ISA, VLB, EISA, AGP, and PCI expansion buses are well-supported. There is some limited support for the MCA ("MicroChannel") expansion bus used in the IBM PS/2 line of PCs.
