Scalability and performance
The x3500 M4 offers numerous features to boost performance, improve scalability, and reduce costs:
Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v2 product family
Improves productivity by offering superior system performance with 4-core and 6-core processors
(up to 3.5 GHz core speeds), 8-core processors (up to 3.3 GHz core speeds), 10-core processors
(up to 3.0 GHz), and 12-core processors (up to 2.7 GHz core speeds), up to 30 MB of L3 cache,
and up to two 8 GT/s QPI interconnect links.
(up to 3.0 GHz), and 12-core processors (up to 2.7 GHz core speeds), up to 30 MB of L3 cache,
and up to two 8 GT/s QPI interconnect links.
Supports up to two processors, 24 cores, and 48 threads maximize the concurrent execution of
multi-threaded applications.
Supports up to 1866 MHz memory speeds.
Will support up to 768 GB memory with 32 GB LRDIMMs when and if they become available.
Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family
Improves productivity by offering superior system performance with 8-core processors and up to
2.9 GHz core speeds, up to 20 MB of L3 cache, and up to two 8 GT/s QPI interconnect links.
Supports up to two processors, 16 cores, and 32 threads maximize the concurrent execution of
multi-threaded applications.
Supports up to 1600 MHz memory speeds.
Supports up to 768 GB memory with 32 GB LRDIMMs.
Intelligent and adaptive system performance with Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 allows CPU cores
to run at maximum speeds during peak workloads by temporary going beyond processor TDP.
Intel Hyper-Threading Technology boosts performance for multi-threaded applications by enabling
simultaneous multi-threading within each processor core, up to two threads per core.
Intel Virtualization Technology integrates hardware-level virtualization hooks that allow operating
system vendors to better utilize the hardware for virtualization workloads.
Intel Advanced Vector Extensions (AVT) can significantly improve floating point performance for
compute-intensive technical and scientific applications.
Up to 32 drive bays together with internal backup and optical drive at the same time provide a flexible
and scalable all-in-one platform to meet increasing demands.
Will support 12 Gbps SAS RAID portfolio when and if it becomes available.
The use of solid-state drives (SSDs) instead of or along with traditional spinning drives (HDDs) can
significantly improve I/O performance. An SSD can support up to 100 times more I/O operations per
second (IOPS) than a typical HDD.
second (IOPS) than a typical HDD.
The server has four integrated Gigabit Ethernet ports that double the network throughput compared
with the previous generation of IBM System x® servers.
