  6. Xtreme-X™ Supercomputer :: Directed Airflow Cooling Methodology Top View –Datacenter Floor Space • Improved cooling efficiency increasing computing capacity up to 28% with the same amount of cooling • 100% of AC flow is forced through the entire system increasing system cooling efficiency • Reduced total cost of ownership and increased computing capacity

  7. Xtreme-X™ Supercomputer :: Recent Design Deployment Renault F1 Racing Team Delivered 38TFs Xtreme-X Supercomputer for Virtual Wind tunnel project Customer Quote “Appro not only offered us a cost effective solution but they also improved our required technical specification through better reliability, greater fault tolerance and redundancy as well as more flexibility with regards to system scalability.”Bob Bell,Technical Director, ING Renault F1 Team

  8. GreenBlade™System Green Architecture Power-optimized design resulting in reduction of power consumption of platform cooling sub system Increased Density Double the density of standard 1U servers Improved R/A/S Shared N+1 power design Shared cooling (3+3) design Hot-swappable blades Hot-swappable power supplies Hot-swappable cooling fans :: HPC Building Block Solution Front View Rear View PAGE |8

  9. GreenBlade™System :: Benefits vs. standard 1U servers • Three-year Savings in Power Cost per Server vs. GreenBlade™ • To adequately cool a compact 1U server, typical cooling system of 1U platform is designed as follows: • Standard 1U uses up to six compact fans to cool one system • Popular Twin 1U uses six compact fans to cool two systems • On the other hand, GreenBlade™ uses six larger(120mm), more reliable fans to cool up to 10 systems • Example below translates to lower TCO for a GreenBlade™ solution over competition * Power cost calculated at $0.13/kWh as per Dept of Energy Commercial power cost national estimate report in 2007 ** Cooling power requirement estimated at 60% of total power supplied
