San Jose, CA, January 3, 2007 - Super Micro Computer, Inc., a leader in application optimized, high performance server solutions, today announced that its SuperServer 5015M-MR earned the top honor from CRN 2006 Products of the Year in the Server category.

"We are honored that CRN has recognized a Supermicro server as this year's best server product for the channel," said Alex Hsu, chief sales and marketing officer of Supermicro. "We remain firmly committed to empowering our partners with the best server technology and to being first-to-market with the very latest advancements."

According to CRN editors, for a product to earn the CRN Test Center Product of the Year honor, it must break past conventions and raise the bar in terms of technical excellence. In addition, it must help VARs and system integrators unlock new business and break free of the pack by providing enough flexibility for them to write their own rules with respect to configuration and customization options.

The SuperServer 5015M-MR provides a highly reliable and robust appliance server platform. Designed within a 14-inch 1U chassis space, it supports a powerful dual-core Pentium D processor, one universal expansion slot for a PCI-X-133 or PCI-Express x8 card, and dual gigabit connectivity. Supermicro now also offers the next-generation SuperServer 5015M-MR+ that supports the very latest quad-core Xeon 3000 processors for ultra-dense computing power.

"When it comes to servers, smaller is better, at least when it comes to physical size," wrote Marc Spiwak of CRN. "For solutions providers looking to reduce the server footprint at their clients' sites, the 5015M-MR offers an inexpensive alternative to blade servers . . . The server is optimized for and sized right for security appliances such as firewalls and VPNs . . . The low price tag, small form factor and customization options earn the 5015M-MR the Product of the Year nod in the server category."
