Take a closer look at the industry's most scalable, powerful, and efficient blade system, designed to scale from a Departmental Cluster to PetaScale Computing, packaged as an integrated product. Its radical new unibody chassis/rack design saves space and weight (~500 lbs less per rack when compared to conventional chassis and rack combinations). Its Sun Blade Independent I/O provides the highest I/O throughput per chassis at 30.72Tbps and is the first blade based on an open PCI-E Industry standard I/O architecture.
