Apple introduced the Xserve on May 14, 2002 (released in June). Initially, two configuration options were available: a single-processor Xserve at US$2999, and a dual-processor Xserve at US$3999. Xserves sold before August 24, 2002 shipped with [[Mac OS X v10.1]] "Puma" Server, while those sold after shipped with [[Mac OS X v10.2]] "Jaguar" Server.

On February 10, 2003, Apple released an improved and expanded Xserve lineup. Improvements included one or two 1.33&nbsp;GHz PowerPC G4 processors, faster memory, and higher capacity Ultra ATA/133 hard disk drives. The front plate was redesigned for a slot-loading optical drive. A new model, the Xserve Cluster node was announced at the same price as the single-processor Xserve, featuring two 1.33&nbsp;GHz processors, no optical drive, a single hard [[drive bay]], no video or Ethernet cards, and a 10-client version of "Jaguar" server.

On April 2, 2003 the [[Xserve RAID]] was introduced, providing a much higher capacity and higher throughput disk subsystem for the Xserve.
