Boston (dbTechno) – Start-up MetaRAM has unveiled a new DDR MetaSDRAM memory technology on Monday. They have stated that this is going to allow them to increase performance on servers and workstations, and will also allow them to reduce prices.
They stated that their new technology will allow the prices of servers and workstations to greatly drop.
Their new MetaRAM DDR2 MetaSDRAM will allow a processor server with four-processors, a quarter-terabyte of memory, and 16 cores sell for under $50,000.
They stated that this is a 90% reduction in system cost thanks to their new technology.
The memory technology has been designed for AMD Opteron and Intel Xeon based systems.
Fred Weber, CEO of MetaRAM stated. “I’ve spent my career focused on building balanced computer systems and providing compatible and evolutionary innovations. With the emergence of multi-core and multi-threaded 64 bit CPUs, I realized that the memory system is once again the biggest bottleneck in systems and so set out to address this problem. MetaRAM’s new MetaSDRAM does just that by bringing breakthrough main memory capacity to mainstream servers at unprecedented price points, without requiring any changes to existing CPUs, chipsets, motherboards, BIOS or software.”
Looks like Weber has a winner here… AMD should buy the company and have its puppy back in the herd
