Dell’s goal is to become the greenest technology company on the planet. We share their belief that it is important to consider the environmental impact at every stage in the product life cycle, so we’ve selected Dell to provide servers, desktops and storage technology.

Dell Servers: New Generation of Server Efficiency
Targeting server power efficiency continues to be one of Dell's primary design objectives. The latest Dell PowerEdge^TM Servers consume up to 25% less energy than previous generations.

Dell Desktop: Thermally Optimized
Dell’s versatile OptiPlex line of performance desktops were built with energy efficiency in mind. Innovations designed into the OptiPlex series, when configured with Intel® CoreTM 2 Duo processors and flat panel displays, allow the OptiPlex 745 to use up to 70% less power than previous generations of OptiPlex desktops.

Dell EqualLogic iSCSI SAN: Built for Virtualization

From the computer chip to the data center, HP is constantly looking for ways to improve product energy efficiency and is working to educate customers about the effects of their power consumption.

HP Servers
HP ProLiant and Integrity Blade Servers and c-Class BladeSystem enclosures with embedded thermal logic (launched in 2006) reduce energy consumption by 33 % compared with conventional rack-mounted servers. These servers save energy through innovative power management, monitoring and cooling technologies.

HP Desktops/Workstations
The HP rp5700 Business Desktop PC, launched in June 2007, is the first product in the industry to receive a gold rating from the Electronic Products Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT)<link to: http://www.epeat.net in separate window>.

Pillar is the only company that reduces energy consumption associated with powering and cooling storage systems, AND reduces the overall physical space consumption of those same storage systems. Resource efficiency is what Pillar Data Systems is all about. No other company helps customers decrease their space, power and personnel resources as well as Pillar Data Systems and no other company can match the Pillar Storage EQ.

Pillar has extensive knowledge in how to design, implement, and maintain virtualized infrastructures—covering all aspects including storage, backup, disaster recovery and automation. Additionally, Pillar Axiom has the same type of intuitive task-based management interface as most virtualization software, making it equally as easy to manage.
