The significant growth in MediaCenter's customer base has justified the installation of a new web server system. Due to the increased demand for dynamic program execution and MySQL, a 64-bit, high-performance AMD Opteron architecture was chosen, and the new machine is therefore a Dual AMD Opteron 244 with MSI K8T Master 2 server chips and 2 GB Kingston Registered ECC RAM.
The Broadcom network card built into the server allows 1 GBit network connectivity.
