I have touched different types of server since working in IT field. IBM, DELL, HP, HP-UX, Sun microsystems to name a few. But NEVER know there is Apple XServe Server!

Xserve available in Quad-core and 8-core (Intel Xeon Nahalem processor). Outstanding fast performance in highly demanding market. It has intelligent to maximize energy efficiency. The best part is Leopard Server support UNLIMITED client for Mac and mixed platform.

XServe key specifications

  • 12 DIMM Slots at DDR3
  • 3GB Memory
  • PCIE RAID card with 512mb RAID cache
  • 256mb DDR3 NVIDIA GeForce GT120
  • 160GB SATA Drive
  • 3 Disks Bay
  • Optional: 128GB Solid-state drive (SSD)
  • Mac OS X Server v10.5

My Two Cents

Apple XServe is only in rack mounting type. How if people don’t use rank? Sorry, no tower casing.

Just wonder how people going to use with XServe? File server, Web Server? Tell me if you know the answer please.
