Product Description
The FUJITSU Server PRIMERGY TX2560 M1 offers maximum performance, best expandability and highest availability without any compromises. Branches, data centers and SMEs value the performance of up to two Intel® Xeon® E5 v2 processors in combination with a maximum 1536 GB DDR4 memory. Up to 10 extension slots and up to 32 2.5-inch hard disks enable excellent expandability options. Thanks to a redundant power supply and fans as well as a range of different RAID controllers the Tower Server ensures top availability levels and “peace of mind”. The server is thus ideal for performance hungry applications, virtualization solutions and storage demanding scenarios. Furthermore, the comprehensive Fujitsu ServerView® Suite provides support for administrators during server installation, deployment and administration.
