	Xserve

The new Xserve works faster, harder, and more efficiently than ever before. And it all starts with the 64-bit Quad-Core Intel Xeon “Harpertown” 5400 series processor. Thanks to this powerful 45-nanometer Intel Core microarchitecture processor, Xserve now runs at blazing speeds up to 3.0GHz. Each Intel Xeon processor has its own 1600MHz system bus for up to 25.6GB/s of bandwidth, so there’s even faster access to main memory.

Four processing cores deliver an incredible performance boost across the board. A massive 12MB of L2 cache per processor keeps instructions and data close to the processor cores, reducing frontside bus transactions and memory latency. Intel’s cache technology allows core pairs to share 6MB of cache. If one core happens to be idle or needs less cache resources, the other can fully utilize it. The enhanced SSE4 SIMD engine handles 128-bit vector computations in a single cycle.

£1,999.00 inc VAT

Configurable Options

• Two quad-core processors (8-core) up to 3.0GHz
• Memory up to 32GB
• Hard drive storage up to 3TB
• Internal hardware RAID card
• Dual-channel Gigabit Ethernet
• Dual-channel Ultra320 SCSI card
• Dual- or quad-channel 4Gb Fibre Channel card
• Dual power supplies

Up to 3TB storage in a 1U package
Configure your Xserve with up to 3TB of storage in three hard drive bays. Choose massive 1TB SATA drives or 15,000-rpm SAS drives for the highest performance available today.

Optional hardware RAID
For enhanced data protection and performance up to 325MB/s3, choose the optional Xserve RAID Card, featuring 256MB of RAID cache and hardware RAID levels 0, 1, and 5. It includes a 72-hour cache battery backup for added protection and doesn’t use either of the PCI Express 2.0 slots.

Up to 32GB of memory
Xserve uses the fully buffered (FB-DIMM) memory standard, which allows for more capacity, faster speeds, and greater reliability than previous technologies. You can install up to 32GB of 800MHz DDR2 ECC memory with high-availability features such as ECC on-demand scrubbing and embedded diagnostics capabilities.

Internal graphics
Xserve includes an internal graphics card with the ability to drive a display without using a valuable expansion slot. Its mini-DVI output can drive a DVI or VGA display.

Unlimited-client Leopard Server
Your Xserve ships with Mac OS X Server v10.5 Leopard, which works with an unlimited number of Mac, Windows, Linux, and UNIX clients. Powerful client management services and new Leopard Server features make Xserve the ultimate server for Mac and mixed-platform workgroups.

Redundant power supply option
For extra peace of mind, you can add a second hot-swappable power supply and connect each to a separate UPS or power circuit. In case of an outage in one circuit, the second supply takes over without a loss in service.

Advanced hardware architecture
Whether you choose the quad-core or 8-core Xserve, all models include 1600MHz dual independent frontside buses and 12MB of L2 cache per processor. And two open PCI Express 2.0 expansion slots — one x16 wide and one x8 wide — offer up to four times the bandwidth of the previous Xserve.

Lights-out management
Control your Xserve without ever trekking to the server rack. Power it on or off, reboot, monitor, and more from a remote Mac connected via Ethernet — no extra hardware or software required.
