Hello I'm in the process of investigating 1U servers and have sofar received offers for:
IBM: x335 Dell: PowerEdge 1750 SuperMicro: SuperServer 6013A-T all with dual 2.8GHz Xeon 2x80GB disks (SCSI or SATA). >From a pure price point of view the SuperMicro machine is preferreble and compared to the others it also have hot-swapable bays. Is there any reason why I should not go for this solution? Another thing. /proc/cpuinfo and memory amount is identical on two different machines (HP and IBM) but the performance differs by 35% for a pure CPU-limited program. The IMB machine has Chipkill - can that explain the performance difference? Both machines are dual Xeon 2.8 GHz machines. The program has been run several times and all timings shows the same.
