QuantumCubeTM
Office Line products
QuantumCubeTM turnkey computational chemistry clusters are designed for office use. Power and cooling requirements do not exceed facilities found in a typical office environment. Standard 20 AMP power receptacle and residential-grade air conditioning are sufficient for optimal operation. Large, efficient 80 mm fans used in combination with straight air flow design reduce the heat and noise generated by the machines to office acceptable levels (QuantumCubeTM machines are often less noisy than many desktop PCs). Small Size, low noise and relatively small heat footprint make the QuantumCubeTM an attractive solution for institutions without dedicated computing facilities.

There is a single set of users and home directories on all
systems (with the exception of the root and tech accounts). The user
password files and the home directories reside physically on the master
and are accessed transparently from the slaves.
WARRANTY
We offer a full, 1 year warranty on all hardware components. Should you have
any problems, you can, at our discretion, either return the affected equipment
to us for repair or replacement, replace components yourself following our
instructions, or we will make the repair on site. This warranty can be
extended to 2 years for an additional 10% of the system price.
If an extended warranty is purchased, then any part not used after 2 years
may be credited towards the cost of a new QuantumCubeTM or
QuantumClusterTM if purchased in years 3 or 4.
