Apple Mac Pro Server 3.2GHz Quad Core Desktop Workstation

3.2GHz Quad Core Intel Xeon Processor

Based on latest Intel Core architecture

8MB fully shared L3 cache improves performance by preserving data and instructions in a fast-access location available to all processor cores

Built-in memory controller enables faster access to data stored in memory by substantially boosting memory bandwidth and minimizing memory latency

Turbo Boost: Dynamic performance technology automatically accelerates the cores in use when others are not required

Hyper-Threading technology enables 2 threads to run simultaneously on every processor core, creating 8 virtual cores for improved performance

8GB DDR3 ECC SDRAM

8GB (4x2GB) built-in registered DIMM (R-DIMM) memory operating at 1066 MHz speed, with support for up to 32GB of DDR3 ECC SDRAM memory in 4 slots, for superb application performance, particularly when working with large files and memory-intensive applications like graphics, audio, video and scientific programs

Utilizes advanced memory technology that delivers both speed and reliability. ECC provides added layer of reliability by automatically correcting memory errors if they should occur

2x 1TB 7200rpm 3Gb/s SATA Hard Drives

2TB included, with potential for up to 8TB total capacity by adding drives. Spinning at 7200rpm to deliver fast read and write performance, Serial ATA drives feature fast 3Gb/s transfer speeds. Or, configure the server with up to 2TB of storage with solid-state drives (SSD's)

Cable-free, direct-attach drive solution enables you to install and remove hard drives and solid-state drives easily. Drives are attached to simple drive carriers that slide neatly into place, with no cables or connectors to mess with. Removing drives is just as simple.
