IBM System x3500 M4 2

Key features

A high-performance dual-socket tower server, the IBM System x3500 M4, can deliver the scalability,

reliable performance, and optimized efficiency for your business-critical applications. Start with the basics

and upgrade as your business changes without jeopardizing existing investments. Virtualizing the PC

infrastructure into one server can provide access to a powerful server with abundant storage space, while

significantly reducing IT costs.

Scalability and performance

The x3500 M4 offers numerous features to boost performance, improve scalability, and reduce costs:

The Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family improves productivity by offering superior system



performance with 8-core processors and up to 2.9 GHz core speeds, up to 20 MB of L3 cache, and

two QPI interconnect links of up to 8 GT/s.

Up to two processors, 16 cores, and 32 threads maximize the concurrent execution of multi-threaded



applications.

Intelligent and adaptive system performance with Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 allows CPU cores



to run at maximum speeds during peak workloads by temporary going beyond processor TDP.

Intel Hyper-Threading Technology boosts performance for multi-threaded applications by enabling



simultaneous multi-threading within each processor core, up to two threads per core.

Intel Virtualization Technology integrates hardware-level virtualization hooks that allow operating



system vendors to better utilize the hardware for virtualization workloads.

Intel Advanced Vector Extensions (AVT) significantly improve floating point performance for



compute-intensive technical and scientific applications compared to Intel Xeon 5600 series

processors.

Twenty-four Load Reduced DIMMs (LRDIMMs) of 1333 MHz DDR3 ECC memory provide speed, high



availability, and a memory capacity of up to 768 GB.

The theoretical maximum memory bandwidth of the Intel Xeon processor E5 family is 51.6 GBps,



which is 60% more than in the previous generation of Intel Xeon processors.

Up to 32 drive bays together with internal backup and optical drive at the same time provide a flexible



and scalable all-in-one platform to meet increasing demands.

The server has four integrated Gigabit Ethernet ports that double the network throughput compared



with the previous generation of IBM System x® servers.

The server offers PCI Express 3.0 I/O expansion capabilities that improve the theoretical maximum



bandwidth by 60% (8 GT/s per link) compared with the previous generation of PCI Express 2.0.

With Intel Integrated I/O Technology, the PCI Express 3.0 controller is integrated into the Intel Xeon



processor E5 family. This helps to dramatically reduce I/O latency and increase overall system

performance.

Availability and serviceability

The x3500 M4 provides many features to simplify serviceability and increase system uptime:

The server offers memory mirroring and memory rank sparing for redundancy in the event of a



non-correctable memory failure.

Tool-less cover removal provides easy access to upgrades and serviceable parts, such as CPU,



memory, and adapter cards.
