The IBM eServer xSeries 206m, part number 8485EAY, is an entry-level tower server designed to support small to medium-sized business environments. Powered by a Pentium 4 631 3 GHz processor, it provides efficient handling of standard business applications and tasks. The server is built around a single-socket platform, meaning it is designed for a uniprocessor configuration, a practical choice for businesses that do not require the complexities of multiple-CPU systems.
This model supports Hyper-Threading Technology, enhancing performance by allowing more efficient execution of multi-threaded applications. With integrated Gigabit Ethernet capabilities, the system ensures fast and reliable network connectivity, critical for an entry-level server. Additionally, the server offers ample expansion options, including support for PCI/PCI-X slots, providing flexibility for adding extra components or upgrades, such as additional network cards or storage adaptors.
The xSeries 206m 8485 supports a variety of DDR2 memory configurations, allowing scalable and flexible memory provisioning to suit different performance requirements. For storage, the server provides opportunities to configure SATA or SCSI hard drives based on specific data storage needs. Although many users opt for a simple configuration, this platform supports a more advanced RAID setup for increasing data redundancy and integrity during daily operations.
With a compact tower design, the 206m is ideal for office environments with limited space. Its quiet operation makes it a practical addition to workspaces where noise control is important. Like other IBM servers, this model also benefits from IBM Director—a management feature aimed at simplifying the server monitoring and maintenance process, ensuring smooth operations.
