processor, offer superior performance capable of tackling the toughest jobs. 64-bit

extensions provide the flexibility to run 32-bit and 64-bit applications concurrently. Xeon 5500

series processors offer up to 225% better performance than the previous-generation 5400

series processors and up to 900% better performance than the single-core processors of a

few years ago that you may still be using.

• Low-voltage processors draw less energy and produce less waste heat than high-voltage

processors, thus helping to reduce data center energy costs. Some 4-core Xeon 5500 Series

processors use only . This is less than half the wattage consumed by older 130W 60W

processors.

• DIMMs of ultra-fast Sixteen registered 1333MHz DDR3 ECC memory with Chipkill1 error

protection (using p2-x8 DIMMS) provides speed, high availability, and a memory capacity of up

128GB.

• Optional 50GB solid-state drives (SSD) use only of power per drive, vs. 2W 9-10W for 2.5-

inch HDDs. This is as much as 80% less power than a 2.5-inch HDD would use (with a

corresponding reduction in heat output).

• The x3550 M2 is a leader in server resiliency. With hot-swap power supplies, fan modules,

and storage, the x3550 M2 has no single point of failure.

• The altimeter works in conjunction with IMM to govern fan rotation. which can help save

money at lower altitudes because the fans do not have to spin at high speed.

• Two high-speed PCIe x16 adapters (Gen 2) slots offer investment protection by supporting

high-performance adapters, such as 10Gb Ethernet, Fibre Channel and InfiniBand™ cards,

none of which will run in older 33MHz and 66MHz conventional PCI slots.

• Integrated ServeRAID M5015- (on selected models) provides RAID-0 1/10/5/50 6/60/ (optional

with Self-Encrypting Disk (SED)) without consuming a valuable adapter slot. It also offers

higher performance 512MB battery-backed cache.

• Up to six 2.5-inch hot-swap SAS hard disk drives offer high-performance with high
