Supermicro Announces UP Xeon Servers
New High-Efficiency SuperServers Leveraging Intel 3010/3000 (Mukilteo-2P/2) Chipsets Deliver Increased Performance-per-Watt: Super Micro Computer today announced optimization for the new Intel Xeon 3000 (Conroe) processor on its extensive line of new uni-processor (UP) server solutions. Supermicro's broad line of new multi-core server solutions deliver improved performance and energy efficiency to provide users with a substantial performance-per-watt boost.
"Our incredibly versatile new line of Xeon 3000 multi-core platforms span a multitude of industry segments, and they deliver the performance and features users demand in order to realize the full potential of their applications," asserts Charles Liang, president and CEO of Supermicro. "Just as important, industry-leading energy efficiency and the ability to upgrade to multi-core processors reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO) for all of these new products." More than twenty new Supermicro server solutions support the new Dual-Core Xeon 3000 processor. This huge selection of new UP servers includes the impressive SuperServer 5015M-UR, which supports three high-performance add-on cards and features 450- watt redundant power in a 1U formfactor. Supermico also offers two very compact, 14-inch deep, 1U servers. The SuperServer 5015M-MR+ and 5015M-MF+ are both powered by the PDSMi+ motherboard, which is based on the Intel 3000 (Mukilteo-2) chipset. These servers support one Intel Xeon 3000 processor with a 1066/800/533 MHz system bus and up to 8GB of dual-channel, unbuffered DDRII- 667/533 memory. Other impressive features include a universal PCI-X 133MHz or PCI-Express x8 full-height expansion slot, dual PCI-Express Gigabit LAN ports and an IPMI 2.0 slot for remote server management. Ideal for server appliances, these stable platforms provide enterprises with easy upgrade options from existing Pentium D platforms.
