Sun Microsystems has unveiled new Sun Fire and Sun Blade systems powered by AMD Quad-Core Opteron processors.


Sun said that the systems, the Sun Fire X4140, X4240 and X4440 servers had 'industry leading' energy efficiency, density and scalability and would run on a range of different operating systems.

"Sun's new x64 systems with Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors offer customers increased performance, scalability and energy efficiency, and ultimately more value than similar servers on the market," said Lisa Sieker, vice president of marketing, Systems Group, Sun Microsystems.

"In addition to more memory, compute density and disk drives than the competition, our server innovations also enable customers to fully realize the benefits of virtualisation and energy efficiency."
