Dual Xeon Gold 6142 1U server

This 1U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6142 processors, each running at 2.6 GHz with 16 cores. It targets dense scale-out workloads such as virtualization clusters, database nodes and high-performance compute farms. The system is sold new and includes rails and a front bezel for immediate rack integration.

128 GB DDR4 with 3 TB headroom

Eight 16 GB DDR4 registered ECC modules populate eight of the 24 DIMM slots, leaving 16 slots open for expansion up to the 3 TB maximum. Storage is handled by a PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache driving eight 800 GB SATA SSDs in the 2.5-inch bays, supporting RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60.

Dual 750 W PSUs and quad-port networking

Redundant hot-swap 750 W platinum power supplies keep the platform running during a single-unit failure. A quad-port daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links, while iDRAC9 Enterprise gives full out-of-band remote management. The LGA 3647 sockets and C620 chipset are already at their two-processor limit, so CPU upgrades are not possible.

Questions about this item

Will the Xeon Gold 6142 CPUs work with my existing DDR4 2666MHz registered ECC memory modules?

Yes, the installed 128GB uses DDR4 2666MHz registered ECC, so matching modules of the same type and speed will be compatible.

How can I confirm the PERC H730P controller sees all eight 800GB SSDs after installation?

During POST the controller BIOS lists each detected drive; you can also verify the full array in the iDRAC9 Enterprise storage view.

Which rails and bezel are included, and do I need to buy a separate SFP+ transceiver for the 10Gb ports?

Ready Rails and the front bezel are included; the X520/I350 card provides two 10Gb SFP+ ports that require compatible transceivers purchased separately.
