Intel X3230 Product Brief - Page 3

Protect Your Critical Data Platforms based on the Intel 3200 chipsets support Error Correction Code (ECC) memory for a high level of data integrity, reliability, and system uptime. ECC can detect multiple-bit memory errors and locate and correct single-bit errors to keep business applications running smoothly. Intel Matrix Storage Technology with integrated RAID 0, 1, 5, or 10 accelerates data access to support high user productivity, and helps protect business operations by allowing recovery of data. Intel Matrix Storage Technology is built into the Intel® 82801IR I/O controller hub (ICH9R). The ICH9R also supports both Serial ATA (SATA) at 3 Gb/s with Native Command Queuing for high-speed disk access, and legacy parallel hard drive interfaces for versatility in a high-performance, entry-level server platform. Cost-effective, Personal Supercomputing Entry-level Intel server platforms are ideal for building small, costeffective HPC clusters that create high-performance, personal supercomputing solutions, or workgroup clusters. 64-bit computing, up to 8 GB of high-speed DDR2 memory per processor, and gigabit Ethernet LAN connectivity enable rapid solutions of the large, complex problems found in technical computing. Personal or workgroup clusters based on the Intel Xeon processor 3000 sequence offer an alternative for scientists and researchers who normally have to share supercomputer or large-scale computing power within a laboratory or a company. Personal or workgroup clusters allow scientists and researchers to be more productive by allowing them to complete tasks on a local cluster more efficiently and conveniently than on larger, shared, computer clusters. In addition to both convenience and productivity, scientists and researchers can gain performance capability to help process their applications or simulations at a fraction of the cost of a full-scale supercomputer. These new platforms provide energy-efficient performance to help you get high-end performance for thin or thick nodes at low power levels, helping to keep the costs of running your personal cluster low. The Intel Xeon processor 3000 sequence-based servers give you essential server technologies to help improve your reliability and data protection. They can help you solve tough problems for less cost than traditional cluster technologies with the dependability and integrity of Intel's 20-year track record for delivering reliable, high-performance solutions. 3
