Munich, March 22, 2007 —Fujitsu Siemens Computers, the leading European IT provider, expands its PRIMERGY server line. The company today announced the availability of two new PRIMERGY server models: The RX330 S1 and Econel 230R S1 rack servers. Both form factors are based on latest AMD Opteron Dual Socket processor technology. With the compact and the cost efficient design the two new PRIMERGY servers are excellently suited for SMEs, midmarket companies as well as for Internet Service Providers and Application Service Providers. The proven PRIMERGY Server Management tool enables the customer to monitor and to control the servers in a simplified way. The new models will be available throughout EMEA in May 2007.

PRIMERGY RX330 S1
"The RX330 S1 balances top-level performance, required availability and tightened IT budgets", said Jens-Peter Seick, Senior Vice-President Enterprise Servers at Fujitsu Siemens Computers. "Redundant components ensure the constant availability of applications".

Furthermore, the server has very wide scaling ranging from redundant power supply units up to six hard disks. The solid system can be used in a flexible manner and expanded according to the customer's requirements, as it is already prepared for the next AMD Quad-Core Generation.
