IEI x QNAP : Mustang-200 อุปกรณ์ที่จะมาช่วยเพิ่มความแรงในการประมวลผลให้คอมพิวเตอร์ของคุณ

กระทู้สนทนา
วันนี้ผมมีเทคโนโลยีสำหรับคอมพิวเตอร์แบบใหม่มาแนะนำครับ เป็น Product ของ iEi ร่วมกับ QNAP ที่มีชื่อว่า Mustang-200 เป็น PCIe CPU Card ที่ใช้ในการเพิ่มประสิทธิภาพการประมวลผลของคอมพิวเตอร์ด้วยการนำเอา CPUx2 (i5,i7) , RAM (Max 32GB) และ SSDx2 มารวมอยู่ในการ์ดเดียวกัน แล้วนำไปต่อเข้ากับ Slot PCIe ที่บอร์ดคอมพิวเตอร์ เพียงเท่านี้คอมพิวเตอร์ของเราก็จะมีประสิทธิภาพในการประมวลผลเพิ่มขึ้นทันที

ลองดูตัวอย่างการใช้งานจากคลิปนี้ได้เลยครับ

Mustang-200: affordable, scalable adv. computing accelerator
The Mustang-200 PCIe card utilizes 2 processors to accelerate your existing or new system for complex calculations or virtualization.

About this project
What is the Mustang-200

The Mustang-200 is an affordable and scalable advanced computing accelerator for speeding up computations, calculations and applications. Equipped with 2 Intel? Core? i5/i7 processors, 32GB (4x 8GB) RAM, and 1TB (2x 512GB) Intel NVMe SSDs, this PCIe card can be used with your existing system, enabling high-performance computing without costing a fortune. You can install multiple Mustang-200 to further boost your computing capabilities, and assign tasks to any of these units as needed.


Inside the Mustang-200

Every CPU on the Mustang-200 is accompanied with 16GB (2x 8GB) RAM and an Intel? 600P series 512GB NVMe SSD.


Once installed in a PCIe x4 slot, the host computer will be connected to both computing nodes on the Mustang-200 with 10GbE networks. The advantage of utilizing network-based structures is that no proprietary hardware is needed thus a lower cost is achieved. The computing nodes are powered by QTS-Lite, a lightweight version of QNAP's award-winning QTS operating system, and the eMMC component will serve as storage for QTS-Lite.

Software of the Mustang-200

The integrated QTS-Lite operating system supports various virtualization technologies such as containers and virtual machines, so you can convert your physical system into a virtual one (P2V) and assign it to one of the nodes on the Mustang-200. Performance can be instantly boosted without interruption or additional physical space requirements.


No matter what kind of software used, it can be hosted inside the Mustang-200, allowing you to do more and achieve more in performance-critical applications such as artificial intelligence, academic research, and simulations.

Scalable Infrastructure to suit your needs

The Mustang-200 needs no proprietary hardware and can be immediately installed into your existing system. If you need to perform additional calculations, you can always add additional Mustang-200 as they work independently from each other. The maximum amount of Mustang-200 is limited only by the number of available PCIe x4 slots in your system. This gives you enormous potential to expand your total computing capabilities.

Distribute tasks among unit of the Mustang-200

With Mustang-200, every additional CPU works independently, so you can assign tasks to any nodes of your choice, and have real-time control over how every node works.

Perfact for fog computing

With robust computing capabilities and scalable characteristics, the Mustang-200 is perfectly suited for fog computing. With fog computing, you can pre-process data generated within your organization or across your devices on-premise, to filter out irrelevant information and only keep valuable insights, and then further utilize them by sending or uploading to cloud platforms. You can save a great deal of cloud platform and bandwidth fees as your data to be analyzed is filtered and only relevant data will be further dealt with.

Video processing and graphic rendering made easy

Video transcoding and streaming are also ideal applications of the Mustang-200. The powerful processors of the Mustang-200 can easily process high-definition 360° surround videos. The networked structure of the Mustang-200 is also perfectly applicable for render farms where a lot of parallel computing resources are needed. The Mustang-200 can help creative professionals streamline their workflows and accelerate their processes.

This is a single shot demo of video transcoding/streaming and virtualization technologies of the Mustang-200. Note that the user interface and detailed controls are still under active development.

Risks and challenges

We have already developed working prototypes of the Mustang-200 with Intel Core i5 CPUs. While we are still polishing final details and preparing the product for further testing, we will endeavor to begin shipping both i5 and i7 versions of the Mustang-200 to our backers in mid October 2017.
