NEC Netbrain Office Server
The NEC CS56 "Netbrain" office
server uses a TM5600 Crusoe processor running Linux 6.5 Secure Server Edition
while consuming less than 20 Watts of power. The unit has no fan and even comes
with a built-in UPS and optional RAID card. Measuring 145 x 240 x 220mm (W/D/H)
and weighing in at 5-6Kg, the small server includes an internal power supply and
can be placed into a 19" wide rack in 2 and 3 unit wide configurations if
desired.
The CS56
server in the most advanced version contains a 600Mhz TM5800 Crusoe processor
coupled with the Ali M1535 Super South Bridge, 192MB SO-DIMM memory, an
ATI-mobility graphics chipset, 40Gb (x2 for RAID) hard drives, optional CD-ROM,
1 serial, 2 USB, 1 parallel, 2 PCI, 2 PS/2, 1VGA and dual RJ-45 ports.
Internally there are up to 2 PCI sockets, and room for compact flash storage.
Sorry folks, as far as I know this one is still
only available in Japan from the manufacturer.
