The IBM System x3500 M4 server provides outstanding performance for your business-critical applications. Its energy-efficient design supports more cores, memory, and data capacity in a scalable Tower or 5U Rack package that is easy to service and manage. With more computing power per watt and the latest Intel Xeon processors, you can reduce costs while maintaining speed and availability.
A high-performance dual-socket tower server, the IBM System x3500 M4, can deliver the scalability, reliable performance, and optimized efficiency for your business-critical applications. Start with the basics and upgrade as your business changes without jeopardizing existing investments. Virtualizing the PC infrastructure into one server can provide access to a powerful server with abundant storage space, while significantly reducing IT costs.
The x3500 M4 offers a flexible, scalable design and simple upgrade path to 32 HDDs, with up to eight PCIe 3.0 slots and up to 768GB of memory. The Onboard Ethernet solution provides four standard integrated Gigabit Ethernet ports without occupying PCIe slots. Comprehensive systems management tools with the next-generation Integrated Management Module II (IMM2) make it easy to deploy, integrate, service, and manage.

Compatibility Notes
|
The x3500 M4 offers numerous features to boost performance, improve scalability, and reduce costs:
The Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family improves productivity by offering superior system performance with 8-core processors and up to 2.9GHz core speeds, up to 20MB of L3 cache, and two QPI interconnect links of up to 8 GT/s.
Up to two processors, 16 cores, and 32 threads maximize the concurrent execution of multi-threaded applications.
Intelligent and adaptive system performance with Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 allows CPU cores to run at maximum speeds during peak workloads by temporary going beyond processor TDP.
Intel Hyper-Threading Technology boosts performance for multi-threaded applications by enabling simultaneous multi-threading within each processor core, up to two threads per core.
Intel Virtualization Technology integrates hardware-level virtualization hooks that allow operating system vendors to better utilize the hardware for virtualization workloads.
Intel Advanced Vector Extensions (AVT) significantly improve floating point performance for compute-intensive technical and scientific applications compared to Intel Xeon 5600 series processors.
Twenty-four Load Reduced DIMMs (LRDIMMs) of 1333 MHz DDR3 ECC memory provide speed, high availability, and a memory capacity of up to 768 GB.
The theoretical maximum memory bandwidth of the Intel Xeon processor E5 family is 51.6GBps, which is 60% more than in the previous generation of Intel Xeon processors.
Up to 32 drive bays together with internal backup and optical drive at the same time provide a flexible and scalable all-in-one platform to meet increasing demands.
The server has four integrated Gigabit Ethernet ports that double the network throughput compared with the previous generation of IBM System x servers.
The server offers PCI Express 3.0 I/O expansion capabilities that improve the theoretical maximum bandwidth by 60% (8 GT/s per link) compared with the previous generation of PCI Express 2.0.
With Intel Integrated I/O Technology, the PCI Express 3.0 controller is integrated into the Intel Xeon processor E5 family. This helps to dramatically reduce I/O latency and increase overall system performance.

Memory Notes
|
8GB PC3L-10600 CL9 ECC 1333 MHz LP RDIMM (1x8GB).
There are 24 DIMM slots, 12 per processor. Maximum memory:
With LRDIMMs: Up to 768GB with 24x32GB LRDIMMs and two processors
With RDIMMs: Up to 384GB with 24x16GB RDIMMs and two processors
With UDIMMs: Up to 32GB with 16x2GB UDIMMs and two processors
Memory notes:
The server supports UDIMMs, RDIMMs, and LRDIMMs.
Mixing different types of memory (UDIMMs, RDIMMs, and LRDIMMs) is not supported.
Mixing 1.5V and 1.35V DIMMs in the same server is supported. In such a case all DIMMs operate at 1.5V.
The maximum number of ranks per channel is eight (with the exception of Load Reduced DIMMs, where more than eight ranks are supported because one quad-rank LRDIMM provides the same electrical load on a memory bus as a single-rank RDIMM).
The maximum quantity of DIMMs that can be installed in a server depends on the number of CPUs, DIMM type, rank, and operating voltage.
All DIMMs in the server operate at the same speed, which is determined as the lowest value of:
- Memory speed supported by specific CPU
- Lowest maximum operating speed for the selected memory configuration that depends on rated speed, operating voltage, and quantity of DIMMs per channel.
