IBM System x3630 M4
IBM Redbooks Product Guide
The IBM® System x3630 M4 server offers a cost-effective high-capacity storage solution with exceptional
energy-smart design, leadership virtualization, and powerful systems management. It supports up to two
eight-core Intel Xeon processors and high-density memory designs with twelve DDR3 DIMM slots. This
2U server consolidates storage and server into one system, offers easy management, and saves floor
space and power consumption, costing less money than traditional enterprise offerings. Designed with
redundancy, flexible subsystems, and a wider range of configuration options, the x3630 M4 also offers an
innovative Feature on Demand (FoD) design for an easier upgrade path.
Suggested use
: Collaboration/email applications, light databases, virtualization/cloud, virtual desktops,
web serving, and virtual storage.
The following figure shows the IBM System x3630 M4.

Did you know
The IBM System x3630 M4 server is designed to provide exceptional value and flexibility to meet general
business or storage-intensive requirements with up to 42 TB of storage space in a dense 2U form factor
and 80 PLUS Platinum certified power supplies. The flexible onboard Ethernet solution provides two
standard integrated Gigabit Ethernet ports and two additional integrated Gigabit Ethernet ports with an
optional software FoD upgrade without needing to buy additional hardware. Comprehensive systems
management tools with the next-generation Integrated Management Module II (IMM2) make it easy to
deploy, integrate, service, and manage.
