Lenovo®ThinkCentre®M91/M91p Desktop
powered by Intel®Core™ i5-540M processor.
The Lenovo®ThinkCentre®M91 and M91p are premium
enterprise-class desktop computers optimized for high performance
and manageability. M91 and M91p are the Lenovo’s first
enterprise-class ThinkCentres with the 2nd generation Intel®Core™
processor. These easily manageable desktops include Intel®vPro™
with Intel®Active Management Technology™ (AMT). The Intel®AMT™
allows authorized IT personal to remotely access, diagnose, fix, manage
and secure business desktops. These superior features also deliver
on maintenance cost and time savings. The Intel®Core™ processors,
employed by ThinkCentre M91 and M91p come with Hyper-Threading
and Turbo Boost to multitask faster and deliver powerful performance.
The ThinkCentre M91 and M91p provide smart technology to keep you
competitive while optimizing your budget and business operation.
These highly scalable ThinkCentres are available in different form
factors (tower and small) and can be customized to your need. The
small form factor (SFF) has RAID with ODD support functions as a
backup mechanism and to secure data. In addition, the M91 and M91p
desktops will soon be available in ultra-small form factor (USFF).
The M91 and M91p are the fastest ThinkCentre desktops with SATA III
hard disk drive and USB 3.0. The SATA III enables data transfer at the
rate of 6GB per second, which is twice as fast as SATA II. The USB 3.0
transfers data at the speed of 625MB per second − ten times as fast as
USB 2.0. ThinkCentre M91 and M91p are highly productive, supporting
up to four independent displays (with discrete graphics), enabling
almost an extra hour of productivity each day.
Lenovo’s Hardware Password Manager, available as optional software,
enables complete remote and central management of keys and
passwords for self-encrypting hard disk drives. The Secure Managed
Client (SMC) 2.0 solution helps businesses to reduce IT costs with the
potential to save up to 40%1expenditure over three years as compared
to a managed PC environment and provides savings up to 63%1in total
cost of ownership as compared to a virtual desktop implementation.
The ThinkCentre M91 and M91p are the most power savings business
desktops and come equipped with features like the Energy Star®
compliant Power Supply Unit and the Lenovo Power Manager tool.
The Lenovo Enhanced Experience for Windows®7 helps the system
boot up faster than an average computer. In additional to manageability,
performance and reliability, the ThinkCentre M91 and M91p come with
award-winning base warranty service and support – for complete peace
of mind. The Lenovo’s ThinkPlus®Priority Support gives IT department
the freedom to access the Lenovo Technical Support to troubleshoot
PC hardware and software issues and manage overhead costs.
