DELL brings Intel dual-core technology to servers for small businesses

NEW DELHI -- Dell recently announced the PowerEdge SC430, which will be among the first servers to feature the enhanced performance enabled by Intel's new dual-core processor technology. Dual-core technology combines two processing units into a single processor chip. The result can be dramatic increases in performance and power efficiency compared to single-core processors, especially when running multiple applications.

The PowerEdge SC430 brings great performance and productivity to small business environments at an affordable price and adds 50 percent more storage capacity and 50 percent more high-speed PCI Express I/O slots than its predecessor, the PowerEdge SC420.

The server is ideal for e-mail, file/print serving and shared Internet access. It is easy to deploy and manage and is designed for small businesses looking to upgrade from existing peer-to-peer networks, or for those looking for their first general-purpose server. With the latest dual-core, memory and I/O technology, the PowerEdge SC430 gives customers more investment protection and productivity than ever before in a small-business tower server.

Damian Crotty, director-enterprise, Dell Asia-Pacific, said: "The PowerEdge SC430 is a great first step in delivering the performance and power efficiency of dual-core technology. We plan to deliver the broadest offering of dual and multi-core servers to our small business, institutional and enterprise customers to help build out their scalable enterprise environments."

PowerEdge SC430 features include:

  • Choice of 2.53GHz Intel Socket-T Celeron, 2.8/3.0GHz Intel P4 Prescott, or 3.0/3.2GHz Intel Pentium D dual-core processor;
  • Up to 4GB of DDR-2 SDRAM;
  • Three PCI Express Slots, and two 32bit/33MHz legacy PCI slots;
  • Optional SATA drives or U320 SCSI drives;
  • Optional Travan TR-40 or DAT72 tape backup unit.
