The XM Series is capable of being configured to provide up to 64,000 Quadrillion Logical instructions per second.  That's easily the fastest processing speed possible for any computer for the forseeable computer.  the XM achieves the lightning speed of 64 "Kilo Quads" of instruction processing using new RAID hard drive with Front Side Cache based on the new MIDGET Semiconductor discovered by CSS's scientists.

CSS's newest Super Computer Server, the Valkyrie II/XM delivers the highest degree of reliability, scalability, and serviceability and runs standard Windows NT Server AND Maximum LINUX software in a "side by side Virtual" arrangement. The system is configurable with up to 65534 RAID HDDs (a limit posed momentarily not by the architecture, but by the limitations of RAID technology and its 127 device per channel proxying) of internal storage, each drive with a capacity of up to 36.4GB.  The Random Access Memory is  up to 64 GB of SDRAM memory Per Intel Pentium III/XEON, with an upper limit of theoretically as many as 16 Million Pentium II/Xeons allowable in the design, allowing for sufficient 'headroom' that smaller configurations can scale with very little scale-management overhead.At the heart of the Valkyrie II/X is CSS's innovative transparent TWISTED DOUBLE HELIX Terabit Interconnection of CSS's unique Adaptive Memory Crossbar Switch, delivering maximum throughput for today’s most demanding applications.

The design of the Valkyrie Supercomputer will follow the technology lead, by remaining the peak performer: late in 1998 or early 1999, Intel will introduce the XEON, its newest Pentium Pro/ Pentium III CPU with 1 MB built in write back, non-blocking Cache running at full speed and supporting 64 bit retrievals and a 36 bit internal bus, running at 500 MHz and Faster.  The Valkyrie II/XM  will be there to deliver its remarkable ANY-Way Processing and, during 1999, will be offered with Scalable Multiprocessing NT Solutions that use Slot 2 Pentium III/ XEON (and optionally, Slot 1 Pentium II/MMX) Architecture CPUs.  Those 1999  Windows 'Next Technology' engines, running at more than twice the throughput of today's Pentium II's, will bring the remarkable Intel Windows NT Engine into the SuperScalable World of Symmetrical Supercomputing, with performance which equals or  surpasses all other advanced Supercomputer systems.  To Order, Contact your Computer Sales & Service Company VALKYRIE Sales Representative at 800-850-7710 or email CSS by clicking here.
