The latest IntelliStation M Pro workstation represents a new level of high-performance hardware with the architecture, design, and features that can help you achieve high levels of graphical and computational productivity and creativity. IntelliStation M Pro models provide a migration path for users who want the latest Intel dual-core processors. Those who are currently using UNIX will find that the IntelliStation M Pro workstation typically offers the ease of use, robustness, and configurability of their current environment. The price/performance advantages and manageability of the IntelliStation platform encourage more clients to migrate from UNIX workstations to Intel-based workstations with Microsoft Windows XP Professional operating systems. The IntelliStation M Pro system is well-suited for graphic-intensive applications with a variety of graphics adapters from which to choose. IBM Director Agent enables you to view, monitor, and control your networked computers through a Web browser or from an enterprise management application such as IBM Director, Tivoli , CA Unicenter, HP OpenView, or Microsoft SMS. From its elegant exterior design to its uncluttered interior, the system is designed for easy upgrade and power. A powerful 400-watt power supply provides power to spare for robust configurations. All models use slot 2 for a PCI Express graphics adapter. Two DIMM slots are available for additional memory upgrades.

Reference information

1 GB equals 1,000,000,000 bytes when referring to HDD or memory capacity; actual capacity may be different.

2 Maximum memory may require replacement of standard memory with optional maximum memory modules.
