One-Socket Tower Servers
One-socket (single CPU) tower servers offer a cost-effective, entry-level solution for businesses migrating to servers from PCs or laptops. Designed for core office workloads, like file sharing, print, point of sale, and database applications.
Two-Socket Tower Servers
Two-socket (dual CPU) tower servers offer a deeper variety of features to accommodate high performance applications like web serving, consolidation, and virtualization. They include more cache and speed, as well as the flexibility for expansion and additional processors.
