Munich/Germany, January 27, 2005 - Fujitsu Siemens Computers, the leading European IT provider, today introduced the PRIMERGY TX150 S3, a new mono processor tower server designed for small and mid-sized enterprises (SMEs) as well as the branch offices of larger companies.
Based on Intel`s latest Pentium and Celeron technology, this entry-level server offers the performance necessary for a variety of functions, including print, file and Web server applications. With advanced PC3200 DDR1 SDRAM memory technology, the new model is remarkably dependable. The choice between U320 SCSI and SATA hard disk drive technology, and six PCI slots and the optional hot-plug redundant power supply make it the most expandable mono processor server on the market.
The utmost flexibility for SMEs
"At SMEs, it is crucial to have systems flexible enough to meet the changing requirements of an expanding business," says Rui de Oliveira, Product Manager at Fujitsu Siemens Computers. "End-user research conducted by Fujitsu Siemens Computers in countries like the UK and Germany also revealed that investment protection was among the key buying criteria at these companies. We thus equipped the PRIMERGY TX150 S3 with only the finest in expandability features."
The new mono processor tower server is also designed for corporate branch offices, where it is ideal for use as a file and print server, Web server, communications server for gateways, domains and firewalls, or even as the central office server. It offers comprehensive features for information transfer (including e-mails, bulletin boards, workflow and groupware applications) when utilised in combination with the Microsoft Exchange Server communications platform.
