THINKSERVER PROCESSORS FOR
INCREASED PERFORMANCE
New Intel® Xeon® 5500 Series processors feature Intel's latest innovation in
microprocessor architecture. Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology along with
Intel® Turbo Boost Technology increases performance of multi-threaded
workloads. It automatically allows processor cores to run faster than the base
operating frequency.
To boost your system's performance for advanced applications and
virtualization, make sure you have enough horse-power with dual processors
to fully engage your ThinkSer ver solution.

Supports Intel•
Xeon® 5500 Series processors (1.86Ghz to 2.53Ghz)
FEATuRES :
Dynamically managed cores - High efficiency•
Simultaneous Multi-Threading (SMT) - Increased productivity•
Integrated DDR3 memory controller - Maximum performance•
®

QuickPath Interconnect - Increased bandwidth
THINKSERVER MEMORY FOR LOWPOWER CONSuMPTION & RELIABILITY
ThinkServer DDR3 memory is the next generation of SDRAM memory that
enables high I/O data transfer rates through increased peak bandwidth
(1333 MHz) and reduces power consumption over DDR2 technology. Faster
data transfer rates mean higher performance, and with DDR3 memory this is
achieved without straining the system's power needs. Also, with Nehalem class
processors, each CPU can support a dedicated set of DIMMs. ThinkServer
systems allow as many as 16 DIMMs to be installed in a single server.
Three Options Available (1GB, 2GB, and 4GB)•
FEATuRES :
Advanced ECC (2GB, 4GB)•
Higher bandwidth performance (1333 Mhz)•
PC3-10600 Registered DIMMs•
Low 1.5V Input Voltage gives a power consumption reduction •
of 30% over DDR2
THINKSERVER HARD DRIVE OPTIONS FOR
PERFORMANCE STORAgE
The 2.5-inch small form factor hard disk drives are designed to deliver
breakthrough performance in a smaller footprint. These options help enable
the creation of high-density ThinkServer systems that provide the ultimate
solution for virtualization.

THINKSERVER OPTIONS – COMPLETINg YOuR PERFECT SOLuTION
When configuring your ThinkServer solution, it is very important to
understand your system’s needs to fully take advantage of the performance
and throughput of ThinkServer solutions. Here are some tips to keep in mind
when building your server solution.
RAID – PROTECTINg YOuR DATA
When configuring for strong data protection through advanced RAID •
solutions, at least three hard drives are required to fully take advantage of
advanced RAID (i.e. RAID 5)
VIRTuALIzATION – SOLuTION IN A BOx
Virtualization provides the huge benefit of reducing total cost of ownership (TCO)•
It’s crucial to ensure your ThinkServer is configured to provide the •
horse-power and storage expansion for the best virtualization solution
Dual-processor ThinkServer systems provide a maximum of 12 Hard Drive •
bays and 96GB of Memory for the ThinkSer ver RD220 – plenty of processing
power, storage, and memory for virtualization
