Product Description
The Cisco UCS C24 M3 Rack Server is designed for both outstanding economics and internal expandability. The Cisco C24 M3 server targets entry level virtualization, IT and web infrastructure as well as storage-intensive infrastructure workloads from big data and small to medium databases to file serving and windows storage servers. Building on the success of the Cisco UCS C-Series Rack Servers, the Cisco UCS C24 M3 server extends the capabilities of the Cisco UCS portfolio in a two-rack unit (2R) form factor. Combined with the Intel® Xeon® processor (E5-2400 product family), it delivers superior performance, flexibility, and efficiency gains. http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/servers-unified-computing/ucs-c24-m3-rack-server/index.html
