Accept no compromises
Selecting the right server for a
particular solution often requires
making compromises. Traditionally,
businesses find they have to trade
off price for reliability, flexibility and
performance.

The IBM ^ pSeries
entry server offers organisations a
no-compromise solution – a very
affordable, small package with
enterprise-class reliability, availability
and serviceability features for
business-critical applications and
good price/performance for scientific
and technical computing.
The pSeries 630 is a one- to four-way
symmetric multiprocessor (SMP)
server featuring award-winning
POWER4 technology. It is available
in two packages – the Model 6C4
is an industry-standard drawer for
rack mounting and the Model 6E4 is
a compact deskside unit.
This combination of exceptional
flexibility, performance and reliability
features helps the pSeries 630 server
deliver value in a variety of roles.
It can easily consolidate workloads
from multiple one- or two-way
servers, providing increased
manageability and availability in a
server-farm environment. It offers
a powerful, expandable standalone
solution for a remote location, a
department of a large enterprise or
a small to medium sized business.
