The GE Fanuc program improves the servers' total cost of ownership (TCO) by eliminating the time and cost incurred by recertifying systems as a result of component or subsystem obsolescence.
The IS-100 industrial server is powered by the latest Intel 64-bit Xeon single-, dual-, or quad-core processor coupled with the new San Clemente server chipset. With a 1,333/1,066 MHz Front Side Bus and up to 8 GB DDR2 ECC SDRAM, the Intel 5100P/ICH9 San Clemente chipset offers throughput unavailable in previous generation compute cores. Internal peripheral resource controllers include a 3 Gb/second SAS controller with software RAID 0/1 support, a 3 Gb/second SATA controller with hardware RAID 0/1 support, plus an XGI Z9 graphics chipset with 32 MB video memory. Hardware RAID 0/1 is available for SAS hard disk drives with an optional SAS controller.
The IS-200 industrial server features either one or two Intel 64-bit Xeon single-, dual-, or quad-core 1,333/1,066 MHz FSB processors coupled with the new San Clemente server chipset. The server hosts up to 32 GB DDR2 SDRAM, a 3 Gb/second SAS controller with software RAID 0/1 support, a 3 Gb/second SATA controller with hardware RAID 0/1 support, plus an ATI ES1000 graphics engine with 32 MB video memory. Hardware RAID 0/1 is available for SAS hard disk drives with an optional SAS controller.
