LAS VEGAS, April 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Super Micro Computer, Inc. (Nasdaq: SMCI), a leader in application-optimized, high performance server solutions, today unveiled live SuperBlade(R) server demonstrations including new solutions optimized for Intel(R) Xeon 5500 (Nehalem) processors at BladeSystems Insight 2009 at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, Nevada (booth 305). At last year’s BladeSystems Insight, Supermicro’s SuperBlade(R) won the Best Green Data Center Solution award. Easy to deploy, easy to use, and offering the best price-to-performance and profit potential available, the SuperBlade(R) was also ranked number one by CRN over IBM and Dell in its May 2008 cover story entitled Blades of Glory.

“Our new Nehalem blade solutions include the world’s first SAS2-enabled blade server in the world, doubling the storage data transfer rate from 3Gb/s to 6Gb/s per channel,” said Charles Liang, CEO and president of Supermicro. “Featuring the industry’s highest efficiency (93%*) power supplies, cooling subsystems and motherboard designs, our SuperBlade(R) solutions deliver the best system-level efficiency in the industry. This increases the maximum computing power per rack and lowers the total cost of ownership (TCO), while also reducing energy consumption and preserving the environment.”
