Intel Execute Disable Bit functionality can help prevent certain classes of malicious buffer overflow
attacks when combined with a supporting operating system.
Intel Trusted Execution Technology provides enhanced security through hardware-based resistance
to malicious software attacks, which allows an application to run in its own isolated space that is
protected from all other software that is running on a system.
Energy efficiency
The x240 M5 offers the following energy-efficiency features to save energy, reduce operational costs,
increase energy availability, and contribute to the green environment:
Component-sharing design of the Flex System chassis provides ultimate power and cooling savings.
The Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v3 product family offers significantly better performance over the
E5-2600 v2 family while fitting into the same thermal design power (TDP) limits.
Intel Intelligent Power Capability powers individual processor elements on and off as needed, which
reduces power draw.
Low-voltage Intel Xeon processors draw less energy to satisfy demands of power and thermally
constrained data centers and telecommunication environments.
Low-voltage 1.2 V DDR4 memory DIMMs use up to 20% less energy compared to 1.35 V DDR3
DIMMs.
Solid state drives (SSDs) use as much as 80% less power than traditional spinning 2.5-inch HDDs.
The x240 M5 uses hexagonal ventilation holes, which are a part of Calibrated Vectored Cooling™
technology. Hexagonal holes can be grouped more densely than round holes, which provides more
efficient airflow through the system.
