Apple Xserve

The Xserve packs phenomenal power and industry-leading capabilities into a high-density, 1U rackmount server that fits easily into any network environment. And this award-winning UNIX-based server just got a 5x performance boost over the Xserve G5, thanks to quad-core 64-bit Intel Xeon processing. Additional features include up to 2.25TB storage, two eight-lane PCI Express slots, dual onboard Gigabit Ethernet, and a combo drive.

With all this, the Xserve provides the stability you need and the performance you want, starting at just £375 a month.

The fifth-generation Xserve is packed with features designed to meet your needs. Powered by the dual-core Intel “Woodcrest” Xeon processor running at up to 3.0GHz, this quad-core 64-bit system delivers performance up to 5 times faster than the Xserve G5. For flexible storage, there’s support for both SATA and SAS — and up to 2.25TB of internal capacity. Internal ATI Radeon X1300 PCI Express graphics is included with a mini-DVI output with VGA support. Dual redundant power supplies gives extra piece of mind. And you can control it all from across the hall or around the world, thanks to integrated lights-out management hardware and powerful, easy-to-use software.

Flexible strength

A high-performance PCI Express-based architecture provides an ultrafast 1.33GHz frontside processor bus and massive I/O throughput including two available x8 PCI Express slots. With advanced ECC data protection and high-bandwidth FB-DIMM memory, Xserve features a 256-bit-wide memory controller providing up to 21.3GB/s throughput to main memory and support for up to 32GB of 667MHz DDR2 ECC RAM with state-of-the-art data protection.

Serious services

Xserve comes with Mac OS X Server, the UNIX-based server operating system that includes a complete suite of standards-based network services. Beyond fast file and print services, Mac OS X Server provides cross-platform management, imaging, and security capabilities, and collaboration features that integrate seamlessly with the desktop user experience. There is also support for POP and IMAP mail, ftp, QuickTime Streaming Server, DNS, and DHCP — right out of the box. And because an unlimited client license for Mac OS X Server is included at no additional cost, you can save hundreds, or even thousands, of pounds on licensing fees.
