Sun Blade 8000 family, x8450 module POWER!
Saturday, February 23rd, 2008Sun has released a new blade module for their Sun Blade 8000 system, the x8450 . With 128GB of RAM in a single module and sixteen hardware threads per module, that means you get 160 threads and 1280GB of RAM in 19 rack units. Pworrrr! If these modules were used in the Sun Blade 8000p, that would give the same performance in just 14 rack units! So in a 42U rack, you can get three of these units in, totaling: 3840GB of RAM, 480 Hardware threads!!!Fantastic! Just make sure you warn your electric supplier!
