It was a hard disk last time, a out of order one of server was the power this time, had already switched over the backup circuit, but the problem is minor, it verifies to the media, this company will release eight kernel server chips at the end of this month to count Intel. Eight kernel Nehalem-EX server chips will face the servers of No. 4.

Show from Intel to strong platform executive Shannon wave forest, each kernel can operate two pieces of thread at the same time in the chip, No. 4 server will there will be 64 fictitious kernels at the same time. Germany of Europe of Paul, chief executive officer of Intel would rather show, Nehalem-EX will be the most quick chip of speed at present of this company. Intel announced this chip last year, but did not announce concrete date issued.

The wave forest has not revealed the clock rate of the chip, but show this chip disposes 24MB to buffer, integrate 2,300 million transistor-resistor logics, utilize craft of 45 nanometers to produce, adopt Nehalem little framework.

Nehalem-EX chip can detect the systematic error caused by processor and system memory, and correct these mistakes. Such technology has already appeared in the large-scale host computer of IBM before decades, but it is for the first time to appear in the chip of Intel, so the server which disposes Nehalem-EX chip has the high and more fault-tolerant and more long uptime.

Wave forest show Intel may also until this month release, adopt the intersection of Westmere and little a new generation to better chip of framework later, first Westmere chips will face the servers of No. 2, facing Westmere chip of the servers of No. 4 will release next year.
