Lenovo ThinkServer RD210

Lenovo ThinkServer RD210

Lenovo's RD210 makes perfect sense if you're a small business that just needs a grunty all-purpose 1RU server.

Asus RS700-E6/RS4

Asus RS700-E6/RS4

The RS700-E6/RS4 1RU bare-bones server, features dual-socket Xeon 5500 series support and 12 DDR3 1066/1333 sockets for a maximum 96GB RAM. You'll need to bring your own components to fit these though, depending on your needs.

Microsoft Exchange 2010 beta 1: Review

Microsoft Exchange 2010 beta 1: Review

There's a lot to like in the first beta of Exchange 2010, from storage improvements to new high availability tools and better integration with the cloud, not to mention Outlook Web Access support for Firefox and Safari. But not everyone will be impressed by the lack of a 32-bit GUI management client.

Sun Fire X4275

Sun Fire X4275

Sun Microsystem's Sun Fire X4275 is an excellent all-rounder, although we'd love it if the noise could be cut down a little more.

Asus TS500-E5 tower server

Asus TS500-E5 tower server

Asus' TS500 offers reliability, speed and efficiency at a low price for a mid-range tower server. However, case design is not ideal, and the system strangely requires a PS2 keyboard and mouse.

Sun Microsystems Sun Fire X4450 server

Sun Microsystems Sun Fire X4450 server

For raw power Sun Microsystem's Sun Fire X4450 is the gutsiest server we've seen, and at 2RU it's compact considering its specs. However, priced at over AU$27,000, this machine will make a dent in your budget.

Raritan Dominion PX8
