Sun’s new 4-socket 16-core Intel Xeon MP 7300 series server

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.

    Betty was such a lvoley soul. She was best friends with Barbs mom Marjorie Korn. Barb fondly remembers growing up across the street and learning to swim in the Erickson pool. Brent became friends with Betty when he was working at the hospital where Betty volunteered in the gift shop. He said that he really enjoyed chatting with her when he would stop in for his afternoon treat. She will be sadly missed but we know that now the bridge game can now continue in heaven! Good bye Betty we will miss you but know we will meet again in our fathers house. Love Brent and Barbara Hatch
