Fujitsu Introduces New Entry-level and
Clustering 2-way PRIMERGY Servers


-- Also introducing a new 14-bay fiber channel storage subsystem --


PRIMERGY Tokyo, February 6, 2002 -- Fujitsu Limited today unveiled two new 2-way Intel® Architecture (IA)-based servers, PRIMERGY F200 and PRIMERGY C200, in its global range of PRIMERGY servers. At the same time, the company introduced the PRIMERGY S60, a flexible (rack-mount and pedestal) external fiber channel storage subsystem for building rack-optimized cluster systems and server-attached storage extensions. The three new models go on sale today.

The new PRIMERGY C200 and PRIMERGY F200 IA servers are designed to meet the needs of customers who are looking for cost-effective systems with high reliability and Intel® Pentium® III processing power. The new PRIMERGY S60 storage subsystem offers excellent bandwidth access and the highest level of additional storage capacity in a minimum of space. When used in combination with PRIMERGY F200, the system provides all the high availability features required for building mission critical solutions.

Today's enterprise network infrastructures in the information age require greater granulation in the configuration of servers than ever before. The launch of the new servers shows Fujitsu's on-going commitment to delivering a wide range of general-purpose configurations in addition to the rack-optimized models suited to mission critical Business Server.

[PRIMERGY F200]
F200 provides excellent all-round performance and is the entry-level server of choice among users who demand data integrity, scalability, availability and the very highest performance in a compact, floor- stand or rack-mount server. The standard ServerView management system automates maintenance processes in remote locations without the need for on-site staff. In addition, the remote warning system can detect potential problems before they become serious. Other features of this 2-way server include ease of expandability, hot-plug hard disks, redundant fans and power supplies, and fail-over LAN technology, all of which support secure cluster operations.

* F200 technical details *
Choice of up to two 1.26 or 1.13GHz processors, 256MB (maximum 4GB) of memory, up to six 73GB hard disks (choice of either single or dual channel drive cage), and 6 PCI slots. Available as either pedestal or 4U rack-mountable unit.

[PRIMERGY C200]
Slightly smaller in size than the F200, but with most of its features, the new C200 is a very affordable entry solution in the PRIMERGY all-purpose 2-way server class. C200 offers a high degree of operational reliability when running critical applications with hot plug and RAID configuration thereby making it an excellent server for Business.

This external fiber channel disk system can be used together with all PRIMERGY servers as storage subsystems, cluster storage and highly available RAID configurations. S60 can support up to 14 hard disks in either a 3U-high rack module or in-office pedestal unit. Its multi-channel high bandwidth connectivity makes it the ideal solution in cluster server configurations. Managed by the same comprehensive ServerView management software found in all PRIMERGY products, it also supports Fujitsu's Remote Service Board for out-of-band remote management.
