Power 10-servere som passer for det nordiske markedet er tilgjengelig for bestilling.
Endelig er Power 10 annonsert med fantastisk ytelsesforbedring i forhold til eldre Power-maskiner. Den minste Power 10-maskinen leverer en dobling av CPW (prosessorytelse) per kjerne i forhold til Power 9. De som i dag har en Power-maskin med SAS-disker bør absolutt vurdere å bytte til Power 10 med NVMe.
Her er oversikt over ytelsestall for aktuelle Power-maskiner
De mest aktuelle maskinen for Norge er S1014 i prisgruppe P05 eller P10. Modelen i prisgruppe P05 har en begrensning på 64 GB minne og 6,4 TB NVMe. Siden NVMe må speiles, betyr det at største tilgjenglig diskplass på en P05-maskin blir på 3,2 TB. De som har behov for mer minne eller disk må velge P10-varianten.
