Dell M610 Power Blade Module

Power Edge M160

Next generation half-height blade server featuring Intel Xeon processor 5500 series architecture

Designed for Power Efficiency:

The Dell PowerEdge M1000e blade enclosure with the M610 delivers exceptional performance per watt. The M1000e enclosure takes advantage of thermal design efficiencies, such as ultra-efficient power supplies, dynamic power efficient fans and optimised airflow design that can efficiently cool the chassis to enable exceptional performance in a lower power envelope.

The Intel Xeon Processor 5500 Series is designed to adapt in real time to your software enabling multiple tasks to be done simultaneously, while boosting performance with Intel Turbo Boost Technology as business usage demands it most. It proactively puts the customers server into lower power states using Intel Intelligent Power Technology during periods of low demand, helping reduce operating costs.

This dynamic power management technology allows the customer to set high/low power thresholds to enable efficient energy management.

Increased Memory Capacity for I/O Intensive Applications:

The M610 is designed with 50% more memory capacity than the previous generation M600, a critical component to virtualisation and database performance.

New DDR3 memory offers higher bandwidth and lower power consumption than previous FBD or DDR2 RAM technologies. The increased memory slots allows you to use smaller, less expensive DIMMs that meet your computing needs and increase your savings.

Virtualisation Performance:

The Dell PowerEdge M610 allows for quick virtualisation deployment with embedded hypervisors from world-class vendors via a SD card or internal USB. Intel VT FlexMigration integrates multiple generations of Intel Xeon processor-based servers, improving flexibility and investment protection. The M610’s enhanced memory capacity is crucial for virtualisation performance while lower-cost memory configurations can help balance cost.

Simplified Systems Management:

The next generation Dell OpenManage offers advanced operations and standards-based commands designed to integrate with existing systems for effective control.

The new Dell Management Console delivers a single view and a common data source into the entire infrastructure. Dell Management Console is built on Symantec Management Platform (formerly Altiris Notification Server platform), an easily extensible, modular foundation that can provide basic hardware management to more advanced functions such as asset and security management. Dell Management Console helps reduce or eliminate manual processes so less time and money is spent “keeping the lights on” and can be redirected to more strategic uses of technology.
