Backed by New Intel Technology, High-Density Rack-Mount and Tower Servers
Offer High Performance at Competitive Price Points
IRVINE, Calif., Feb. 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Refreshing its portfolio
of full-featured server offerings for the professional sectors, Gateway today
announced three new server products: the Gateway 9510 Series tower server, the
Gateway 9315 Series 1U rack-mount server and the Gateway 9515 Series 2U
rack-mount server. The new systems complement Gateway's growing line of
back-office computing platforms, which spans from the entry-level Gateway 9210
all the way up to the Gateway 995 4U enterprise-class server.

These powerful, high-density solutions are designed to meet a broad
spectrum of business, education and government organizations' workgroup and
departmental computing needs. Each of the new server platforms features
support for the Intel(R) E7520 or E7320 chipset and Intel(R) Xeon(TM) dual
processing capability, providing next-generation performance and system
responsiveness(1)(4). The new Intel processors are coupled with an 800 MHz
system bus and Hyper Threading technology(4), helping businesses effectively
handle spikes in workload. As a result, the systems can be utilized for basic
file and print functions up to more demanding email and high-end database
applications.
With PCI Express and DDR2 memory, the server lines boast robust graphics
capabilities and increased I/O performance with reduced system latency.
Enhancing manageability, the systems also feature hot swap drive bay options
in the 9510 and 9315. Reliability features are also available, including ECC
memory, dual redundant fans and dual redundant power supplies.
"Businesses need an easy-to-manage computing platform that will scale as
they grow," said Tim Diefenthaler, senior director of server product marketing
at Gateway. "Gateway's new servers offer availability features such as RAID 5
in a 1U chassis and hot swap redundant fans. Coupled with the latest Xeon
processing power the systems scale from web servers up to demanding
transactional database applications, ultimately delivering exceptional value
to customers."
Because the systems are scalable, they provide great performance today
while leaving plenty of headroom to address organizations' future needs. All
of the servers include ample drive bays, room for additional memory and
two-to-six PCI slots, including PCIe and PCI-X. Additionally, the servers
support 64-bit extended memory technology (EM64T), so IT managers can utilize
next-generation 64-bit applications without sacrificing compatibility with
current 32-bit applications.
