Dell PowerEdge C1100 Extended Description: In an attempt to grab a bigger slice of the server market, Dell introduces the all new PowerEdge c1100. The c1100 offers nothing you don’t need, and is the only Intel Xeon in the 5500/5600 lineup offers the maximum number of memory slots.

For starters, the PowerEdge 31100 is equipped with two Quad Core Intel Xenon L5520 2.26 GHz processors and a powerful 72 GB of DDR3 RAM, making it easy to multitask in any network environment.

Adding to this is the storage capacity of 250 GB hard drive, which allows you to install the operating system of your choice.

From the front, the Dell PowerEdge c1100 is similar in design to a pizza box, but can pack up to ten 2.5 inch drives or four 3.5 inch drives. For higher memory, you can opt for 18 DIMM sticks for a grand total of 144 GB RAM.

The PowerEdge c1100 can be had with either Intel’s Westmere or Nehalem processors, and is compatible with the Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud and Joyent Solution.

With the PowerEdge c1100, Dell has capitalized on its expertise in providing high performance, hyperscale computing to homogenous cloud application environments.

This is by far one of the best value products for those looking to put together mini-clusters or install multiple clusters into limited space.
