On the TeraStation mainboard you will find the following chips:
- Freescale MPC8241LVR266D (IC13)
- System on a Chip, main processor
- 266MHz MPC603e PowerPC core
- 133MHz memory controller EDO/SDRAM
- 32bit 33/66MHz PCI v2.2
- I2C interface
- JTAG
- Dual serial ports
- Micron MT48LC16M16A2TG-75D (IC32, IC33, IC34, IC35)
- 4x 4M x 16bit x 4banks = 4x 256Mbit = 128MB RAM
- ITE IT8211AF (IC41, IC42)
- Two IDE controllers
- Four P-ATA133 channels, UDMA6 support
- Realtek RTL8110S-32 (IC25)
- Gigabit ethernet controller
- Unshielded RJ45 port
- NEC D720101GJ (IC37)
- USB2.0 host controller, EHCI and OHCI interface
- Four USB Type-A connectors, two at front, two at the back
- Motorola MC68HC908JL8 (IC40)
- 8 bit microcontroller (MCU)
- Labeled: TERAPWP001
- SMSC EMC6D102-CZC (IC43)
- Fan control and hardware monitoring
- Fujitsu MBM29PL32TM (IC18)
- 4MB flash
- Used for boot, see flash
- Sipex SP3220EU (IC38)
- RS232 level shifter
- Serial port used to connect a UPS
- Can be rewired to give access to the Terastation Serial console
- Atmel 93C66 (IC27)
- 4Kbit serial (Microwire) EEPROM
- Connected to the RealTek gigabit Ethernet controller for configuration
The chips are also listed in this posting on some Japanese BBS. Here is a replica of the uninformative official specification.
Beside the mainboard, there is also a small board in the front panel to control the LEDs. It's connected to the TERAPWP001 MCU with a 5 pin connection via CN17.
For the 1.0TB version, the disk array consists of
- four Maxtor 6B250R0 hard disc drives
- 251000MB, CHS=30515/255/63. Marketing calls this 250GB
- 16384KiB Cache
or
- four Western Digital WD2500BB hard disc drives
- 250056MB, CHS=30401/255/63
- 2048KiB Cache
or
- four Samsung SP2514N hard disc drives
- 238473MB, CHS=30401/255/63
- 8MB Cache
or
- four Segate Barracuda 250GB 7200.8 ST3250823A hard disc drives
- 243481MB
- 8MB Cache
- 7200RPM
