\"MarkWe pride ourselves on offering customers the widest selection of servers available in the industry, and today we’re extending that leadership by expanding our portfolio with 4-socket servers featuring Intel’s latest technology. The new Intel® Xeon® 7500 series processor was introduced just two weeks ago, and I am proud to say that through our deep partnerships with both Intel<\/a> and Dell<\/a>, we have some of the first units off the production line. The Planet is blazing a trail in the hosting industry, offering the latest technology and superior value – and that’s our commitment to customers.<\/p>

So what’s all the fuss about the 7500 series? <\/p>

The Intel Xeon 7550 is a 2.0 GHz processor with 18MB of cache that boasts eight cores. (Yes, you read that right … eight!) Housed in a 4-processor Dell™ PowerEdge™ R910 chassis, this server – packaged as the Quad Xeon 7550<\/a> – provides you with 32 cores<\/strong>. And if that’s not enough core density, when you enable Intel Hyper-Threading Technology, that count doubles to 64 cores in a single server<\/strong>. Include 2TB of bandwidth, 600GB SAS storage (2×300GB) and 32GB of RAM – expandable up to 2TB – and you have a package that takes on the most challenging workloads. Mission-critical, resource-intensive and virtualization applications are a breeze for this platform. <\/p>

But, don’t take my word for it — try it out for yourself. And, as with all servers from The Planet, you’ll receive our bundle that includes Symantec Endpoint Protection, 10GB of Storage Cloud and Parallels Small Business Panel, free of charge.<\/p>

So what are you waiting for? The Quad Xeon 7550 is available now<\/a> in virtual and private rack environments.<\/p>

First in the industry to offer Intel’s 5600 series processor … CHECK<\/a>. <\/p>

Stay tuned … who knows what we we’ll do next. \":-)\" <\/p>
