Xserve G5

Xserve G5 delivers more than 30 gigaflops of processing power per system, about 60 percent more than the PowerPC G4-based Xserve. It features a PowerPC G5, 64-bit processor and includes a new system controller with up to 8GB of PC3200 error correcting code (ECC) memory; three hot-plug Serial ATA drive modules that deliver up to 750GB of storage; optional internal hardware RAID; dual PCI-X slots, supporting 133 MHz PCI-X cards with over 1 GBps of throughput; and dual on-board Gigabit Ethernet for high-performance networking. Available with either single or dual 2.0 GHz PowerPC G5 processors, the system’s architecture is based on an execution core that features massively parallel computation for an 215 in-flight instructions, full symmetric multi-processing, two double precision floating-point units and an optimized Velocity Engine.
