New Gateway 960X server maximizes uptime and IT managers' peace of mind.Redundant Power Supplies, Hard Drives and Xeon Processors Protect Organizations' Data and Applications Redundancy may be akin to inefficiency in some business leaders' minds, but when it comes to servers, it's a good thing. Take the Gateway(R) 960X, for example. Launching today and designed for small--and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) or workgroups within larger organizations, the server offers a host of redundancy features that allow it to achieve maximum uptime--meaning critical business applications, such as email, file/print, web applications and other departmental software, are always on. Packed with high-performance components, the 960X delivers this redundancy at an aggressive price. Features such as dual Intel(R) Xeon(TM) processors, four hot-swap drives, optional redundant 450W power supply and plenty of room for future expansion mean it can grow with any department, workgroup or office. The 960X's flexibility extends even to its form factor, as it comes standard in a tower case but can also be converted into a 5U rack-mount option. "The Gateway 960X is a mid-range server that delivers high-performance features," said Scott Weinbrandt, general manager of Gateway's Systems & Networking Products Division. "It's an ideal product for smaller companies and workgroups looking for Looking for In the context of general equities, this describing a buy interest in which a dealer is asked to offer stock, often involving a capital commitment.
