Apple Specs > Xserve (All) > Xserve (PowerPC)

Update Published November 2, 2024

Every Apple Xserve with a PowerPC processor is listed below. Xserve models all use thin, rack-mountable cases intended for server use.

Apple sold Xserve models with PowerPC processors from 2002 until 2006 and Xserve models with Intel processors from 2006 until 2011.

Apple no longer sells the Xserve, but the company continues to offer some newer, and current, Mac Pro models with Apple Silicon processors in much larger rack-mountable cases than those used by the Xserve.

Click on a specific model for its complete technical specs, configuration options, identification details, performance benchmarks, original price in dozens of countries, and more.

You may also be interested in All Xserve models, which includes later Xserve models with Intel processors (2006-2011), and All Apple Macs.





Click on the triangle to the left of a product to open "Quick Specs" -- identifiers and basic configuration details -- and click on the name or image for complete specifications. You also can lookup Macs and other Apple products by their identifiers.

Asterisks indicate that particularly important details are provided on the applicable specs page. Also note that configurations listed are the default or most common; many models have multiple options. Refer to the specs page for full details.
