Benefits |
|
|
|
|
Up to four Six-Core AMD Opteron processors |
|
- 45nm technology reduced power and increased frequency
- Integrated memory controller provides maximum performance for memory-intensive applications
- Easy upgrade path with CPU cards including processor, heat sink and eight memory DIMMs
|
|
|
|
|
PassThru Processor Card |
|
- Enables unique three-processor configuration delivering outstanding performance and energy efficiency at a low cost
- Allows for flexible configurations of two, three or four processors, letting customers scale as needed and allowing for headroom
|
|
|
|
|
Xcelerated Memory Technology |
|
- Optimizes performance by allowing the full 8 DIMMs per CPU to run at 667 MHz for the fastest memory possible
|
|
|
|
|
Extended I/O |
|
- HTx slot takes advantage of AMD’s HyperTransport technology for low-latency I/O performance
|
|
|
|
|
Maximum memory |
|
- Eight DIMMs per processor card, up to 32 total, allowing up to 128 GB maximum memory in a 4U package
|
|
|
|
|
Hot-swap redundant power supplies |
|
- Help increase system and application uptime by eliminating another point of failure with a second hot-swap power supply
|
|
|
|
|
Hot-swap redundant fans |
|
- Enable the server to continue operating even with fan failure
- Replacing fans is easy, without taking your server offline or out of the rack
|
|
|
|
|
Integrated dual Gigabit Ethernet |
|
- Helps provide increased network throughput and redundancy with efficient slot-saving integration
|
|
|
|
|
Integrated System Management Processor |
|
- Provides around-the-clock remote management capabilities
- Helps increase server availability by continuously monitoring your system and notifying you of potential system failures or changes
|
|
|
|
|
Support for optional IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine |
|
- Works in concert with integrated system management processor to provide even greater system control
- Helps decrease downtime by allowing you to remotely perform systems management functions whether your server is operational or not
- Does not require use of PCI slot allowing customers to have maximum I/O flexibility
|
|
|
|
|
Drop-down front access light path diagnostics panel |
|
- Gives information about a failing component without interrupting system operation
- Expedites hardware repairs to dramatically reduce service time
- Maximizes uptime by quickly and easily identifying component failures
|
|
|
|
|
IBM ServerGuide™ software |
|
- Assists with the installation of operating systems and drivers
- Gets your server up and running faster
- Simplifies installation and configuration of your IBM System x® servers
|
|
|
|
|
Operating System flexibility |
|
- Choice of Microsoft® Windows®, Red Hat Linux® or SUSE Linux operating systems
- Runs both 32-bit and 64-bit OS support to allow migration to 64-bit computing at a pace that makes sense
|
|
|
|
|
Three-year customer replaceable unit and onsite limited warranty |
|
- Provides peace of mind for an extended period of time
