What the Xeon LC3518 is
The Intel Xeon LC3518 is a single core Jasper Forest storage processor from February 2010. It runs one Nehalem class core at 1733 MHz with no Hyper-Threading, so 1 core gives 1 thread, backed by 2 MB of cache. Power is rated at 23 W on a 45 nm process on LGA 1366.
The LC prefix and 23 W envelope suit fanless leaning storage controllers that idle most of the day. Against the P1053 it adds clocks and cache at lower power. The task list shows one core with no thread count, so this page uses one thread without assuming Hyper-Threading, matching the EC5509 pattern in the same family.
There is no graphics on this die. I/O comes from the storage board chipset.
Socket and motherboard compatibility
The Xeon LC3518 fits LGA 1366 with 1366 lands. Storage boards with Jasper Forest firmware boot it directly.
The socket table carries no per-codename claim for Jasper Forest, so the page shows the neutral sentence. The Socket vs chipset: what decides whether a CPU works guide covers pairing rules.
Memory, PCIe and cooling
Memory is DDR3 ECC through the board design.
PCIe comes from the board chipset for storage controllers.
Cooling uses a server heatsink rated for 23 W on the 80 × 80 mm pattern.
Upgrade paths
On LGA 1366 the storage upgrade is a dual core Jasper Forest such as the LC3528 on the same board. Beyond the storage platform a move to Xeon 5600 series needs a standard server board.
Frequently asked questions
What socket does the Xeon LC3518 use?
LGA 1366, the 1366-land package on storage boards with Jasper Forest firmware.
How many cores does the Xeon LC3518 have?
One core and one thread at 1733 MHz with 2 MB of cache. The list shows no thread count, so no Hyper-Threading is assumed.
What memory works with the Xeon LC3518?
DDR3 ECC through the board design.
