EDP Weekly's IT Monitor, Feb 23, 2004

Dataram Corporation (Nasdaq:DRAM), a provider of server and workstation memory, has announced a first to market 8GB upgrade for Hewlett-Packard's zx2000 and zx6000 workstations, doubling the maximum memory capacity of these systems.

Dataram's 8GB DRHZX2000/8192, for the zx2000 workstation, and DRHZX6000/8192, for the zx6000 workstation, contain two registered ECC DDR266 DIMMs built with advanced, high-density one-gigabit DRAMs. These 64-bit Intel Itanium 2-based workstations, designed for complex applications for HPC (high-performance computing), geophysical exploration, simulations, CAE, high-end CAD and EDA, will benefit greatly from the extra memory capacity.

"With the use of Dataram's new 8GB upgrades, zx2000 users can now utilize a maximum memory capacity of 16GB and zx6000 users up to 48GB," stated Jeff Goldenbaum, Dataram's product Manager. "Increasing memory capacity enables very large data sets to reside in main memory, delivering significant productivity gains."

Dataram has many 4GB and 8GB memory upgrades, not available from the system manufacturers, to power advanced servers and workstations.
