Getac Inc., a leading manufacturer of rugged computers, is introducing the X500 Server. Designed for mobile command centers, the new briefcase-size X500 rugged mobile server is a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS), high-performance, mobile rugged server that allows quick deployment and can be easily transported into emergency, disaster and temporary environments.
The X500 rugged mobile server is built from a quad core X500 ultra-rugged notebook, and adds a RAID expansion chassis, complete with RAID controller board and up to five shock-protected storage drives that can be easily accessed or swapped through one of two quick access doors. Embedded inside the RAID expansion chassis is a RAID controller card for enterprise-class server applications. The X500 Server supports RAID levels 0, 1 and 5 and includes software designed to make it easy to view, monitor and configure the storage in your mobile server.
The X500 rugged mobile server is powered by an Intel Core i7-820QM 1.73 GHz quad core processor for stellar performance and speed with 16GB of RAM. Additionally, the server features the NVIDIA® GeForce® GT330M discrete VGA graphic controller with 1GB of memory and comes standard with an integrated 15.6 inch 800NITs QuadraClear sunlight-readable display.

"The server’s power, storage and Windows Server 2012 make it ideal for quick deployment in harsh or fast-moving mobile environments."
