IBM BladeCenter PS701, 8406-71YA


IBM BladeCenter PS700, PS701, and PS702 blade servers are based on the IBM POWER7 processor, delivering robust features like scalability, energy efficiency and ease of use. These IBM blade servers allow you to consolidate workloads and virtualize while conserving both time and costs. And, you can start with just a 1-processor chip (8 core) blade and upgrade to a 2-processor (16 core) blade when you’re ready.

The flexible design of the IBM BladeCenter PS700, PS701, and PS702 allow more servers to fit into a smaller space. You’ll also be impressed with IBM’s PowerVM virtualization technology, which lowers infrastructure costs, simplifies IT operations and manages risk and decreases downtime. Choose between AIX, IBM i or Linux operating systems, based on the needs of your organization.
