As mentioned on Jonathan’s Blog, Sun will release a new 4-socket 16-core Intel Xeon MP 7300 series server.
Some facts about Sun’s new 16-core Intel Server:
- 2U Rackmount Server
- 4 Sockets, 16 Cores in one Box
- Intel Tigerton 7300 Quad Core CPUs, currently up to 2,93Ghz/120W
- 32 DIMM Slots, up to 256GB RAM
- 8 hot-swap SAS 2.5″ Disks
Nice to see more than 4 disks in a Sun server. This was still a gap, comparing Sun Galaxy Servers to IBM or HP Boxes.
Hope that the Bios and ILOM will be better than ILOM of the Sun Blade 6000 X6250 modules, currently the Blade6000 feels quite beta compared to the Sun X4200 Bios and ILOM.
