networks and large companies. The server is suitable for use as a file server
and also as an application, information or Internet server.
The PRIMERGY RX300 S3 server offers a high level of reliability and availability

software, „Prefailure Detection and Analysing" (PDA) and „Automatic Server
Reconfiguration and Restart" (ASR&R).
Security functions in the BIOS Setup and on the system board protect the data
