Angstrom Microsystems, an AMD Opteron™
processor specialist company, is announcing the world's first blade server
running on four AMD Opteron processors. These blade servers can be easily
racked, providing the highest density of any 4P AMD Opteron processor server in
a rack today -- 208 processors and 52 blades. The Titan64 QuadraBlade is
available immediately and will be on display at the Bio-IT World show in Boston
March 30 - April 1, 2004
A Titan64 QuadraBlade rack is comprised of four
stacked nests, each nest housing 13 QuadraBlades for a total of 4 x 13 blade,
or 52 blades. Each blade is a four-processor cache coherent, shared memory
(SMP) system with the option of 2 SCSI, IDE, SATA HDDs and high- speed
interconnects such as Myrinet™ or Infiniband.
