Trust your company to Intel’s proven server technology
With nearly 40 million Intel® processor-based servers shipped since 1996, and a 20-year track record of
delivering enterprise-class performance, more companies trust their businesses to Intel processor-based servers.
Intel processor-based entry-level servers give companies the reliability, performance, and tools they need to
focus on their business instead of their computers.
Our entry-level server platforms are comprehensive solutions. We combine effective technologies, software,
and industry alliances to give you servers optimized for your business with incredible value. Intel has used its
new process technology to extend its Intel® Core™ microarchitecture and provide compelling price performance
for value conscious customers. You can count on Intel to deliver superior quality and reliability to drive your
business forward.
The Ideal Entry-level Server
Our entry-level server platforms with Intel Xeon processor 3000 series and the Intel 3200 chipsets are ideal for value-conscious
organizations looking for their rst server or small HPC cluster with a close eye on their budget. These platforms offer industry-leading
performance coupled with Intel reliability to help drive your big ideas non-stop, and are dependable, efcient to set up and manage,
provide trouble-free operation and help ensure that your operational needs are met at every stage of your business growth. Our
entry-level server platforms integrate the most advanced technologies:
• Intel® Xeon® processor 3300
1
series or Intel® Xeon® processor
3100
1
series are based on Intel Core microarchitecture, with
Intel® 64 Architecture
2
and 1333 MHz front-side bus. These
processors deliver outstanding performance for today’s busi-
ness applications, capabilities to run a broad range of 32-bit
and 64-bit applications, and plenty of headroom for growth
for tomorrow.
• Power-efcient performance designed into the platform to
help reduce operating costs while delivering higher performance
than previous-generation Intel Pentium processor-based
server platforms. Lower power consumption can also result
in slower fans and quieter servers.
• The Intel® Xeon® processor L3360 provides a 30W reduction in
thermal design power (TDP) at the same frequency as the Intel
Xeon processor X3360. The Intel® Xeon® processor L3110
provides a 20W reduction in TDP at the same frequency as
the Intel Xeon processor E3110. The lower TDP makes these
processors ideal for building entry-level servers for thermally
sensitive, space-constrained environments.
• Intel® Matrix Storage Technology quickly stores and retrieves
data, while protecting one of your company’s most important
assets – information – with RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 technology.
• PCI Express,* today’s mainstream I/O technology, helps enable
fast I/O transactions to assist peripherals to keep up with our
high-performance processors and chipsets, and builds in
scalability for the future. The Intel® 3210 chipset offers an
additional PCI Express I/O for even more expansion possibilities.
• Intel® PRO/1000 PM/PL network connections provide gigabit
Ethernet LAN connectivity for high-speed network access.
• Intel® Virtualization Technology
3
provides hardware assist to
virtualization software, enabling your servers to support both
32-bit and 64-bit operating systems and applications on the
same server. Implementing virtualization enables businesses
to get the most out of server investment by running more
applications on each server.
• Up to 8 GB of high-speed 800 MHz dual-channel DDR2
memory with Intel 3200 chipset keeps more data closer
to the processor and helps eliminate slowdowns from
memory bottlenecks.
