Sun Launches Sun Blade X6450 Server (Xeon) Module Today

Wednesday Jun 18, 2008

Today Sun announced its powerful new Sun Blade X6450 server module at the International Supercomputing Conference (ISC) in Dresden, Germany (blog pics here).

Sun writes: "The Sun Blade X6450 is the newest in the 6000 series server modules, and brings the Sun Constellation System to the next level of performance through enhanced features that include up to four Intel Xeon dual- or quad-core processors, an optional 16GB Compact Flash storage subsystem, 24 DIMM slots and 110Gbps I/O throughput. This potent technology combination can deliver up to seven teraflops of performance per fully populated Sun Blade 6048 chassis and up to 71% more compute cores."

I'm sure http://blogs.sun.com/HPC/ will write more about ISC in Dresden.
