| NEC's New Server to Provide Lockstep Support for Intel Xeon 5300 NEC has announced the NEC Express5800/320Fc Fault Tolerant server - the first in the industry to deliver lockstep support for the low voltage Quad-Core Intel Xeon processor 5300 series, while delivering more than a 200% performance gain over current Dual-Core models. Additional enhanced features of the NEC Express5800/320Fc FT server include support for the fastest front side bus that provides up to 66% greater CPU Input/Output (I/O); a 50% increase in memory capacity for applications and virtualization management (VM); PCI-Express expansion for 25% faster I/O and compatibility; enhanced internal disk support; and certified support for NEC's next-generation external storage subsystems. The NEC Express5800/320Fc delivers the highest availability for mission critical applications, and effectively supports the emergence of server consolidation and virtualization workloads. Combined with NEC's storage technologies, availability software for applications, and disaster recovery capabilities, the 320Fc expands NEC's fault tolerant offering, providing the broadest solution set in the industry from a single vendor. The NEC Express5800/320Fc demonstrates NEC's commitment to advancing the Intel processor family by being first to implement lockstep support for the Quad–Core Intel Xeon family of processors. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Networking News :: home page |
