Xserve G5
The Xserve G5 was released in 2004 and represented a significant advance over the previous models. The Xserve was now powered by the powerful 970FX G5 processor from IBM, and made this sever especially attractive for low cost, high power computing, or clustering into a supercomputer. Due to the increased heat given off by the G5 processor, Apple was forced to remove one of the hard drives to allow for cooling ducts. The current Xserve G5 has undergone two revisions, and is available in 3 different configurations.
