Superior performance and power management
The IBM System x3755 provides breakthrough performance for computing applications that demand maximum memory availability. With unique AMD design architecture, including integrated memory controller and HyperTransport ™ technology, the x3755 is exceptional for applications requiring low latency and high-speed access to memory data.
The x3755 has outstanding management capability with tools such as IBM PowerExecutive™ that provide the system intelligence needed to effectively monitor power-consumption in the datacenter. PowerExecutive can "meter" actual power usage and trend data for any single physical system or group of systems.
In addition, the x3755 has a front access pull down light path diagnostic panel that quickly and easily identifies troubled components of the system. The x3755 provides some of the most comprehensive Predictive Failure Analysis® in the industry. With light path diagnostics for major components in the system such as hard disk drives, memory and CPU, along with fans, voltage regulator modules (VRMs) and power supplies, the x3755 delivers a full set of alerts to help keep your system running at maximum efficiency.
