Einux ships fastest AMD 1U Rack Servers
Los Angeles 15 October 2001 Einux, in conjunction with AMD, launched the fastest 1U rackmount servers available
in the industry with AMD's new Athlon MP 1500+, 1600+ and 1800+
multiprocessing processors. When combined with Einux's Compact
Server Architecture (CSA), 42 FlyBird 1Us are capable of processing over
250 Gigaflops and storing over 12
terabytes of data, all in one industry standard 19" rack cabinet, making it
perfect for high-end computing applications.
The A.Serv Flybird 1U
RackServer features two Athlon MP processors, operating at up to 1.533GHz,
making it the fastest 1U (1.75" height) server on the market today. Starting at
a price of $1,895, the Flybird 1U is also one of the most cost-effective 1U dual
CPU servers available and is an excellent addition to Einux's high density
server solutions offering the lowest total cost of ownership (TCO) and total
cost of management (TCM) in the industry.
Designed for demanding enterprise and high performance computing environments,
Einux's A.Serv Flybird 1U supports up to 3GB of fast PC2100 Double Data Rate
(DDR) memory and has four 64-bit and two 32-bit PCI slots. As part of the
Einux's A.Serv family of high-density rackservers, the A.Serv FlyBird also
features Einux's patent-pending ServerKool and CPUKool and a unique
aluminum-magnesium alloy chassis, which produces an efficient and cool operating
environment for optimal server performance. The aluminum-magnesium alloy
material used in the FlyBird is a special alloy mixture, originally developed
for aircraft and spacecraft, which acts as an overall heatsink, cooling not just
the CPU but the entire server operating environment keeping internal ambient
temperature up to 10 degrees Celcius cooler than conventional materials.
At the heart of Einux's Flybird 1U is AMD's super fast Athlon MP CPU, which is
based on AMD's Palomino core featuring new technologies such as 3DNow!
Professional and SmartMP bus technology. The Athlon MPs superior Floating Point
Unit (FPU) makes the Flybird ideal for processing complex calculations in
applications such as vector graphics, 3D animation and supercomputer processing.
In benchmarks, the unit performed 30 to 50% faster than comparable Intel
Pentium III and Pentium 4 processors.
