Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :SMCI SMCI Senior Military Customs Inspector (US Army) SMCI Super Micro Computer Inc. ), San Jode, Calif., , a leader in application optimized high performance server solutions, has unveiled new lines of motherboards, servers and workstations based on the Intel(R) 5100 (San Clemente) chipset. Optimized for Quad-Core Intel Xeon(R) 5400 Series (Harpertown) and Dual-Core Intel Xeon 5200 Series (Wolfdale-DP) processors, these cost-effective dual-processor (DP) server and workstation solutions deliver increased energy efficiency, performance and cost savings. "Our new SuperServers and workstations solutions based on the Intel 5100 (San Clemente) chipset, with regular DDR (Double Data Rate) Refers to an SDRAM memory chip that increases performance by doubling the effective data rate of the frontside bus. For more details, see SDRAM. DDR - Double Data Rate Random Access Memory 2 memory instead of FBD FBD Fluid(ized) Bed Dryer FBD Fully Buffered DIMM (memory) FBD Free Body Diagram FBD Far Beyond Driven (album) FBD Functional Block Diagram(s) memory, offer superior performance-per-watt and cost-to-performance ratios, because DDR2 memory costs about $10 less per module compared to FBD and generates less heat," said Charles Liang, president and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Supermicro. "These solutions are also the first DP server products in the world with a life cycle greater than five years, making them ideal for embedded and industrial applications." "The new Intel 5100 chipset enables Supermicro to provide its customers new levels of power efficiency and performance in the DP server market," said Kirk Skaugen, vice president, Digital Enterprise Group, Intel Corporation. "The breakthrough performance-per-watt of the new Quad-Core Intel Xeon 5400 and Dual-Core Intel 5200 Series processors is facilitating new levels of complementary Supermicro innovation around highly efficient designs." Designed for cost-effective 1U, 2U, 4U and tower systems, the new X7DCL-i serverboard supports up to 32GB of DDR2 memory, six expansion slots including three high-performance PCI-Express slots, and six SATA (Serial ATA) A serial version of the ATA (IDE) interface, which has been the de facto standard hard disk interface for desktop PCs for more than two decades.
