Server system for rack deployment

This 2U rack server ships new with a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 V3 eight-core processor at 2.4GHz and 16GB of DDR4 memory across twelve DIMM slots. It includes two 600GB 15K SAS drives managed by a Dell PERC H730 RAID controller supporting levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750W redundant power supplies and a DVD ROM complete the configuration.

Suits single-CPU workloads with SAS storage

The platform fits environments that need hot-plug 3.5-inch SAS or SATA bays, hardware RAID, and iDRAC8 remote management on a single populated socket. It does not suit buyers who need a second processor installed, more than two drives pre-populated, or SSD storage included from the factory.

Eight-bay 3.5-inch hot-plug chassis

The enclosure provides up to eight 3.5-inch hot-plug drive bays for SAS or SATA media, with a maximum raw capacity of 80TB. This bay count and form factor determine whether the chassis matches the storage density and serviceability requirements of the target rack.

Questions about this item

How many DIMM slots are free for adding more DDR4 memory later?

The server has 12 DIMM slots in total. With 16GB already installed, the remaining slots depend on the current module layout, which is not detailed here.

Which component caps sustained performance first, the 2.4 GHz Xeon or the 15K SAS drives?

The 15K 600GB SAS drives will hit their IOPS ceiling before the eight-core 2.4 GHz Xeon saturates under typical database or virtualisation loads.

How loud and hot does the 2U chassis get with both 750W supplies running 24/7?

Dual 750W redundant supplies and eight 3.5-inch drive bays mean fan speeds rise under load; expect noticeable airflow noise and warm exhaust in a closed rack.
