The IBM System x3550 M2 7946 is a rack-mounted server designed for data-centres and enterprise-level applications. This server is powered by a Xeon E5504 processor running at 2 GHz, offering moderate performance for standard computational tasks. The Xeon E5504 is a quad-core processor from Intel’s Nehalem family, supporting multiple workloads and moderate virtualisation tasks, making it well-suited for basic server needs.
The chassis for the x3550 M2 is optimised for space-saving deployments, occupying a 1U form factor in a rack. This allows businesses to make efficient use of their server cabinet space. Although the system comes with none pre-installed memory or hard drives, it supports flexible customisation with up to 18 DDR3 DIMM slots and internal storage that allows for the installation of SAS or SATA drives, depending on business needs. The server's hardware is configurable to meet different operational demands.
In terms of expansion, the x3550 M2 is further equipped with two PCIe 2.0 slots, granting users the option to add networking cards, RAID controllers, or other devices. This server also includes several features aimed at improving overall efficiency, such as redundant power supply options and hot-swappable components. Such features reduce potential downtime and ensure reliability.
The IBM System x3550 M2 7946 features advanced energy efficiency options to minimise power consumption while delivering sufficient computing power. This makes it a capable choice for organisations seeking a balance between performance and efficiency for their IT operations within a confined physical footprint.
