Highlights

  • Value-priced, 2-socket design allows for affordable business growth and performance
  • Flexible configuration options meet todays business needs while allowing for future growth
  • Optional redundant features help protect business-critical data with minimal IT support
  • Experience improved performance, reliability and scalability from Intel® Xeon® processor
Ideal for growing businesses
The IBM System x3400 is an excellent low-cost solution for growing businesses or branch offices that rely on around-the-clock availability and mission-critical applications. Optional features let you configure a server customised for your needs - from basic file-and-print to a robust, mission-critical application server - saving you time and money.
Flexibility for your investment
For small organisations with big plans, the x3400 can grow with you. Deploy an infrastructure with less hardware, that supports the same - or more - applications. Start with a basic configuration and add features and capacity to accommodate your growing business.

For branch offices with demanding, complex data transactions, the x3400 offers dual-socket computing power and support for up to eight-core processor performance, making the x3400 an affordable yet robust system. Optional redundant features help maintain business-critical availability and uptime.

Select configurations of the x3400 are part of the IBM Express Portfolio designed and priced to meet the needs of mid-sized businesses. Reliable and easy to manage, Express models/configurations vary by country.

Up to two Quad-Core Intel Xeon Processors (2x4MB L2 cache)
  • Delivers ultimate processor performance with eight cores using optimised L2 cache
  • Maximise multi-threaded applications for faster and concurrent execution
Fast Fully Buffered DIMM 667MHz memory
  • Match the high performance speed of the Intel Xeon processors with new-generation, high-performance memory
  • Online spare and memory mirroring provide customers with two ways to increase systems and application reliability by allowing the system to continue
  • Interleaved memory to improve application performance
Support for up to 8 hot-swap SAS or SATA HDDs (with optional 4-pack upgrade)
  • SAS provides increased performance, simplified cabling, and better fault isolation than parallel SCSI without cost premium
  • Up to 6.0TB of data storage capacity with optional 4-pack upgrade kit
Supports simple-swap SATA HDDs (model dependent)
  • SATA HDDs provide high capacity at a lower cost
  • Provides up to 3.0TB data storage capacity
Six available PCI I/O slots for system expansion, scalability
  • Gives you expandability choices and the capability to increase I/O bandwidth for performance and productivity
Three PCI-Express slots
  • PCI-Express allows customers to achieve faster interconnect speeds than PCI-X 133MHz
Two PCI-X slots
  • Enables customers to continue to utilise their PCI-X adapters while they plan their transition to the PCI-Express standard
Integrated Random Array of Independent Disk (RAID)-0, -1 and -10
  • Increased system availability and data protection by supporting RAID-0 or -1, included with the server, without using a PCI slot
  • Optional upgrade to RAID-5, -6 or -1E protection takes high availability to your HDDs efficiently without sacrificing performance and does not require an I/O slot - leaving more room for system availability
Optional zero channel SAS RAID-5 via ServeRAID-8k adapter
  • Optional upgrade to RAID-5, -6 or -1E protection takes high availability to your HDDs efficiently without sacrificing performance and does not require an I/O slot - leaving more room for system availability
Hot-swap cooling fans standard
  • Easily replace cooling fans without taking the server offline
Models with hot-swap/redundant power and cooling
  • Reduces downtime by maintaining system performance if a fan/power supply needs to be replaced
Externally visible LED
  • Gives information about a failing component without interrupting system operation - visible without removal of system covers
  • Expedites hardware repairs to dramatically reduce service time
  • Provides a lighted path to failing component inside the system
CVC
  • Helps prolong system life by keeping your system components cool
Integrated System Management Processor
  • Provides around-the-clock remote management capabilities
  • Increases server availability by continuously monitoring your system and notifying you of potential system failures or changes
