Half-width blade with dual Gold 6526Y

The Dell PowerEdge MX760C is a half-width blade server built for dense compute workloads. Two Intel Gold 6526Y processors run at 2.8 GHz with sixteen cores each and 37.5 MB cache. Memory capacity is 128 GB DDR4 arranged as eight 16 GB modules at 5600 MT/s. Storage starts with two 1.92 TB SATA SSDs managed by an H755 MX controller.

Suited for virtualisation hosts needing many cores

This blade suits teams running virtual machines or container clusters where core count and memory density matter. The single Marvell FastLinQ 41262 mezzanine provides two 25 Gb connections for fabric A and B. Buyers who need more than six 2.5 inch drive bays or who require Fabric C storage switches included should look elsewhere. The iDRAC9 Express remote management covers essential out-of-band control.

Six 2.5 inch bays limit local storage growth

The chassis offers six 2.5 inch drive bays, but only two are populated with 1.92 TB SATA SSDs. Expansion beyond four additional drives requires external storage or a different chassis. The H755 MX RAID controller manages the installed SSDs and any added drives. This bay count is the deciding factor for workloads that keep data on the blade itself.

Questions about this item

How do I install the MX760C into a Dell PowerEdge MX chassis, and what step is often missed?

Slide the half-width blade into an open bay until the release lever clicks, then secure the retention screw; the step often missed is seating the mezzanine connector fully so the 25Gb CNA and Fabrics A, B and C links come up.

Which components will need replacement first during the server's life?

The two 1.92TB SATA SSDs and the eight 16GB DDR4 DIMMs are the only field-replaceable parts that wear out; the H755 MX controller and Gold 6526Y CPUs are non-hot-swap and rarely fail.

What limit appears first when the Gold 6526Y CPUs run at full load for hours?

The 16 cores per socket at 2.8GHz hit the chassis thermal ceiling before the 128GB memory or the 25Gb mezzanine saturate, so sustained all-core turbo is constrained by blade cooling capacity.
