Questions about this item

Will the two Xeon Gold 6148 processors at 2.4GHz fit the LGA2066 sockets on my existing R640 motherboard?

Yes, both Gold 6148 CPUs use the LGA2066 socket and the R640 supports a maximum of two processors, matching the installed pair.

How can I confirm the H730P controller sees all eight 600GB SAS drives after installation?

During POST the H730P BIOS will display each 600GB SAS drive; you can also open the controller utility to verify all eight appear in the array.

Which items ship with the server and which must be sourced separately?

The chassis includes two Xeon Gold 6148 CPUs, 256GB DDR4, H730P controller, X550-T4 network adapter, and eight 600GB SAS drives; rails and an operating system are not included.
