The System p5 9131  520 Express platform with ships with a 2.1 GHz POWER5+ processor cores CPU.  Powered by IBM’s latest Quad-Core Module (QCM) 1.65 GHz POWER5+™ processor cores, RICOM offers customers the p5-520Q Express server.  The 520 and 520Q Express servers utilize logical partitioning (LPAR) technology implemented via IBM Virtualization Engine systems technologies and the operating system (OS). LPAR allows the processors to run separate workloads in different partitions on the same server, thereby helping lower costs. The 520 and 520Q Express platforms are designed to give clients the flexibility to run the AIX 5L and Linux operating systems concurrently in micropartitions. 

The System p5 9131  520 and 520Q Express servers are available as either a 19-inch 4U (four EIA units) rack drawer or deskside unit. DDR2 memory starts at 1GB and can be upgraded to 32GB. Clients have extensive growth potential from the base six PCI-X slots and up to 2.4TB of internal disk storage. The attachment of up to four optional I/O drawers can add 28 slots and 14.4TB of storage providing significant expandability.  For the ultimate in server availability, the 520 and 520Q Express servers can be clustered with IBM High Availability Cluster Multiprocessing (HACMP™) software designed to provide near continuous availability.  RICOM sells new and used / refurbished System p5 520 and 520Q Express servers.
