Xserve
(redirected from Xserve G5)

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.02 sec.
Xserve
A Mac network server from Apple, introduced in 2002 and discontinued as of January 2011. Apple has been so successful in the consumer space that they opted to drop out of the back office and datacenter market.

The slim, 1U rack-mounted Xserve originally came with one or two G4 PowerPC CPUs, display adapter, optical drive and up to four disk drives configured as RAID 0 or 1. Aimed at server farms, the following year brought the Xserve Cluster Node model without optical drive or display adapter. Also introduced was Xserve RAID, a high-capacity disk subsystem, which was later eliminated. G5-based models were introduced in 2004, and Intel-based models with Xeon chips came out in 2006. See Macintosh models. See also X server.
