The IBM® System x3650 M4 BD server offers a cost-effective, high-capacity storage solution with
exceptional energy-smart design, leadership virtualization, and powerful systems management. It
supports up to two Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v2 family processors and high-density memory designs
with 16 DDR3 DIMM slots. This 2U server is built on IBM X-Architecture®, and it consolidates storage
and server into one system, offers easy management, and saves floor space and power consumption,
costing less money than traditional enterprise offerings.
Suggested use : Big data, email and collaboration applications, databases, virtualization and cloud, virtual
desktops, and virtual storage.
The following figure shows the IBM System x3650 M4 BD.

    The light path diagnostics panel allows systems engineers and administrators to easily and quickly diagnose hardware problems on the IBM System x servers. If a failure occurs, a light is illuminated on the front panel of the server (level 1 light path) to alert the systems administrator that there is a problem. This light directs the engineer or administrator directly to the failed component, which also has an illuminated LED near it (light path level 3), for example, the DIMM error LED on the system board.
