Product Description
The new PRIMERGY BX620 S3 server blade provides several future oriented technologies in case of processor (dual core), memory (FBD, extended mirroring), storage (modular storage controller configuration) and 2.5 inch SAS or SATA hard disk drives. Based on those capabilities the PRIMERGY BX620 S3 enables customers to run larger applications compared to existing PRIMERGY BX600 Dual Server Blades. With its new modular design for different requirements, the customer can create specific configurations in combination with SAS or SATA hard disks to meet different usage scenarios. For example a customer can create a low cost platform with SATA hard disk and the SATA storage module or featured platform with SAS hard disks and a SAS storage module, which can take up a PCI Express card in addition. For high demands regarding security a SAS storage module with RAID1 and Cache/iTBBU is offered. All those configurations can be established very easy in the factory or in the field, because the different storage modules come with an intelligent mounting cage for the server blade front.
