January 27, 1999 - Dell Computer Corporation (Nasdaq: Dell), the worldīs leading direct computer systems company1, today extended enterprise-class capabilities into departmental servers with the worldwide introduction of the Dell Poweredge 4400 server. As the No. 2 Pc server provider in the world1 and a leading provider of servers for the Internet infrastructure, Dell continues to define price/performance and value in Pc servers with the Poweredge 4400. The Poweredge 4400 offers power and expansion features generally found only in enterprise-class servers at a departmental server price with prices starting Euro 4, 265 - Lit. 8. 258. 191 for floor-standing or rack-mountable models. The Poweredge 4400 departmental server takes performance and reliability to enterprise levels of availability and uptime by incorporating up to two 800Mhz Pentium Iii Xeon processors with 133Mhz front side bus (Fsb) support and a 64-bit quad-peer Pci architecture. The Poweredge 4400 enhances its availability with hot-pluggable redundant fans and hot-pluggable, redundant peripheral component interconnect (Pci) support. It is well-suited to run email, database, Internet/intranet, e-commerce and file/print applications for departments or small-to-medium sized businesses. "The Poweredge 4400 is designed to deliver the high performance enterprise-class availability and investment protection customers need at a departmental server price, " said Tejas Vakil, Vice President Enterprise Systems & Segment Marketing, Dell Emea. "With the Poweredge 4400, Dell is once again a leader in providing customers with the performance and value they want in a server. " The Poweredge 4400 supports up to 252 Gb2 of internal storage, or a total of 288Gb2 when an optional 36Gb2 of hot pluggable drives are installed in the removable media bay. The Poweredge 4400 server offers customers a choice of redundant array of inexpensive disk (Raid) technology, including embedded Ultra3 (Ultra160) Raid on the motherboard, called Perc 3/Di. This technology gives customers a less-expensive alternative for the protection of important data. Perc 3/Di features dual-channel Raid capabilities with 64 or 128 Mb of battery-backed cache and twice the performance bandwidth as Ultra2/lvd (160Mb/s versus 80Mb/s). Alternatively, customers can install the Perc 2/Dc, Dellīs new dual-channel Raid card, when clustering the Poweredge 4400 to achieve added levels of data availability. Customers can choose between small computer system interconnect (Scsi) or Fibre Channel server-attached storage technologies when clustering two Poweredge 4400 servers. The Dell Powervault 200S series external Scsi storage systems, including the newly announced Powervault 210S and 211S systems, which will house up to 12 hard drives, provide optional additional storage capacity to Poweredge 4400 customers. Clustering allows customers to rely on the Poweredge 4400 to run business-critical applications with less system downtime. For shared Fibre Channel storage in a cluster, customers can take advantage of the Powervault 650 Fibre Channel Storage System, which accommodates growing storage needs with external storage capacities of 4Tb (terabytes) in a single data center rack. All Dell Poweredge servers ship with a suite of Dell Openmanage systems management tools that are designed to help customers gain better control of their systems, reduce their total cost of ownership, and easily manage Poweredge systems within their preferred enterprise management framework When clustering the Poweredge 4400, customers can use Dell Openmanage Cluster Assistant with Cluster X to more easily monitor, control and maintain clusters on their networks. The Dell Poweredge 4400 will support the latest versions of Microsoft Windows Nt, Novell Netware and is slated to support Red Hat Linux 6. 1 as of mid-February, 2000. The Poweredge 4400 will support Windows 2000 Server and Advanced Server when announced by Microsoft on February 17, 2000. These operating systems will be installed through Dellīs standard factory process. Other operating systems can be configured, tested and factory-installed upon customer request through Dellplus custom integration. The Dell Poweredge 4400 server is supplied with a comprehensive service plan including next business day, same business day (5x12) or same day 4-hour (7x24) response options3. Poweredge systems are supplied with a 30-Day Getting Started help line and 24-hour technical support over the telephone or through the award-winning on-line support site http://support. Euro. Dell.
