Update Published November 2, 2024
Every Apple Xserve, regardless of release date or architecture, is listed below.
First introduced in 2002, the Xserve series was Apple's most "heavy duty" server line since the Network Server models. The Xserve combined fast performance in compact, space-saving cases designed to be placed in industry-standard racks.
Although the Xserve was the first Apple series to be rack-mountable, the first rack-mountable Macs were from long forgotten Mac clone maker Marathon Computer.
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.
