bullx R424 E2
 • Breakthrough computing density and ease of maintenance
 
bullx R424 E2
The R424 E2 servers, like the other R42x compute nodes, are ultra-dense servers equipped with new-generation Intel® Xeon® processors, and are ideally sized to deliver the level of performance needed by power-hungry Extreme Computing applications. They also guarantee an optimal availability rate, thanks to redundancy features and ease of maintenance.
