There are two new PTO options for Sun Fire X4540 with six-core AMD Opteron Processor 2435. The two new PTOs offer either two AMD Opteron 2435 CPUs, 32 GB memory and 24 TB of storage or two 2435 CPUs, 32 GB memory and 48 TB of storage. The desired system will be preinstalled with Solaris 10 Update 7 OS. The new CPU Opteron 2435 processor has six cores in each CPU as compared to the quad core CPU for higher throughput I/O and better data throughput rate for each CPU.
The Roman Catholic Diocese of Boise found the solution it required for updating their IT infrastructure with Sun. This particular implementation created a virtual storage solution that can scale to meet new demands; reduced 28 physical servers to six; reduced server support costs by 70%; cut power costs and increased performance per watt; and resulted in 95% system availability.

The Sun Fire X4275 Server, powered by 2 Quad-core 2.93 GHz Intel Nehalem X5570 processors and using only 12 internal disks (SAS 300GB 15K RPM), achieved a QphH@1000GB of 23,365 with a price performance of $2.41 in tests running the Sybase IQ Database. Reported by BM Seer, this is the best price performance among all non-clustered server results at TPC-H 1000GB.
