HIAWATHA, Iowa, 22 April 2010. Crystal Group Inc. in Hiawatha, Iowa, is introducing the RS101x2 dual rugged server for applications in environments where performance, ruggedness, and reliability are imperative, such as military shipboard electronics, airborne, and land-based applications where virtualization is not possible or practical.

The RS101x2 unit contains two Penryn computers in one chassis. The rugged 1U dual server offers extended capability with a shock and vibration rating of 4.43 GRMS in combined wheeled vehicle and aircraft profiles, and a temperature range of -40 to 55 degrees Celsius.

The RS101x2 is available with Intel CPU architecture: 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Mobile, Penryn T9400, Socket P, micro-FCPGA478. Expansion choices in this 18-inch rugged dual server include one slot per side: Mini-PCIe,1XSD, and Mini PCI, meaning greater adaptability. Each side offers one external 3.5-inch bay, capable of one or two removable 2.5-inch SATA HDDs for as many as four drives in each server.
