The pSeries 640 offers:
- The IBM pSeries 640 outstanding value in a powerful,
symmetric multiprocessing (SMP), e-business server
optimized for high-density environments
- Rugged, space-saving rack-mount, slide-in chassis
packaging designed for extreme levels of availability,
maintainability, and ease-of-use with tool-less
access
- Design optimized for ease-of-growth by providing
internal upgrade paths and horizontal scaling options
to meet rapidly changing capacity demands
- Up to four, state-of-the-art, IBM 64-bit POWER3-II
processors that exploit unique copper-based technology
for high performance and reliable service
- Up to 16 GB of memory and 145.6 GB of internal
disk storage for the performance and capacity needed
by demanding e-business applications
- Innovative systems management feature using hand-held
devices like Palm Pilot
- Multiple power options including 110/220 V AC
or -48 V DC NEBS level 3 compliant distribution
pSeries B80 Standard configuration
High-density, rack optimized
The pSeries 640 symmetric multi-processor (SMP) can
have up to four state-of-the-art 64-bit, copper-based
POWER3-II microprocessors. The base system consists
of a 375MHz processor with 4MB of ECC (error checking
and correcting) Level 2 (L2) cache. A two- or four-way
375 or 450MHz system is optionally available with
8MB of L2 cache per processor, offering still greater
performance for many applications. The base 256MB
of main memory can be expanded to 16GB for faster
performance and exploitation of 64-bit addressing
capability required by large database applications.
The pSeries 640 5 EIA units (5U) x 19-inch industry-standard
rack drawer is 24 inches deep and contains five bays,
one of which is used for a 5.25" SCSI CD-ROM,
DVD-RAM or tape drive. The remaining four front-accessible,
hot-swappable bays can accommodate up to 293.6GB of
internal disk storage; an 18.2GB Ultra SCSI drive
is included in the base configuration. Five PCI slots
are provided, along with an integrated 10/100Mbps
Ethernet controller with two ports, internal and external
Ultra2 SCSI controllers and a service processor.
Multiple pSeries 640 drawers may be installed in
standard IBM racks, including the IBM 7014-T00 (36U).
These racks may also house I/O disk storage such as
the IBM 2104 Expandable Storage Plus (Ultra3 SCSI)
and IBM 7133 Serial Disk System (SSA) to provide terabytes
of highly reliable, high-performance, hot-swappable
disk storage.
