Dell Philippines has launched the Dell Precision M3800, one of the world’s slimmest and lightest 15-inch mobile workstations, and the Dell PowerEdge T20, an entry level uniprocessor server designed for small and home office use.
The Precision M3800 offers 10 hours of battery life, is 18 millimeters thick and weighs 1.88 kilograms.
The M3800 runs on a fourth-generation Intel Core i7-4702HQ 8 threaded quad-core processor, which is one of the fastest in the Haswell lineup. The Nvidia Quadro K1100M graphics processor has 2GB of video memory.
Other features of the M3800 are a webcam, three USB 3.0 ports and 802.11ac Wi-Fi. The laptop can be configured with as much as 16GB of RAM. There is no Ethernet port, but Dell is bundling a USB 3.0-to-Ethernet dongle.
The Dell Precision M3800 runs Windows 8.1 Pro (64-bit) or genuine Windows 7 Professional (64-bit) with up to 3.2GHz clock speeds running professional software applications.
The M3800 has an aluminum frame on the cover and a strong, lightweight carbon fiber on the base. Its 15.6-inch Corning Gorilla NBT Glass UltraSharp display has 3200×1800-resolution and has five-finger multi-touch screen for all touch-optimized applications. M3800 can also be paired with the high-performance 31.5” UltraSharp 32 display with exceptional Ultra HD 3840×2160-resolution, coming later this year, for a powerful dual-monitor workstation combination.
The workstation can manage large data files with its multiple storage configurations for up to two storage devices, with a maximum of 1.5TB of storage (HDD, SSHD, or SSD), one 2.5-inch drive and a solid state mini-card storage device (mSATA). Further, M3800 assures mission critical software such as those in media and entertainment, engineering and design applications will run as designed, and comes with optional Dell ProSupport for premium 24/7 global support from expert technicians.
“As the traditional workplace continues to evolve, our workstation customers are requiring more portable systems, but can’t afford to sacrifice performance for their critical software applications. On the other hand, a server is imperative in saving time when moving or copying files between locations, because server offers faster data transfers compared to external storage, cloud storage or email,” said Christopher Papa, Country Manager, Dell Philippines.

Ideal for small offices and home businesses (SOHOs), the Dell PowerEdge T20 is the newest device in the PowerEdge portfolio which allows better collaboration to all sorts of customers. Powered by multi-core Intel Xeon processor, the mini-tower server is a general-purpose one-socket server that is ideal for small office and home business (SOHO). It also powers by Intel Pentium or Celeron and runs Windows Server 2012 or Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5 and above.
Featuring six internal hard drive bays, the PowerEdge T20 allows data and applications from multiple desktops and workstations to be consolidated onto a single server to propel collaboration and productivity. It helps improve access to information, simplify processes and overcome data and applications complexity by eliminating potential misplaced and lost data, images and videos due to “sneaker-net” file sharing.
The server can safeguard against data loss with built-in support for file duplication using software RAID and has automatic backup and restore function with Microsoft Windows Small Business Server. It also helps simplify tasks and save time by updating software application in one place instead of on multiple PCs.
PowerEdge T20 boosts performance with up to 12 USB (four USB 3.0) ports to attach more devices and drive fast videos and graphics and enhances flexibility with four PCI/PCIe slots.
It also supports large memory capacity with four DIMM slots for enhanced application response time and crisp video performance.
The PowerEdge T20 is currently available at Dell authorized dealers starting at a retail price of US$800.
