Built for dense virtualisation

This 2U rack server ships with dual eight-core Xeon E5-2630v3 processors running at 2.4 GHz and 64 GB of DDR4 memory. It targets organisations that need a compact platform for moderate virtual-machine density, database workloads or application hosting where redundant power and hot-swap drives are required.

Memory and storage limits

The board provides 24 DIMM slots but the installed 64 GB already reaches the listed maximum capacity, so no further memory expansion is possible without replacing modules. Two 900 GB 10K SAS drives are fitted behind the H330 controller which supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60; the chassis accepts up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives for a total raw ceiling of 64 TB.

Cooling and power profile

Dual 750 W redundant power supplies share the load, keeping the system running if one unit fails. The 2U form factor uses internal airflow ducts to move heat across the processors, memory and drive bays; under typical mixed workloads the fans run at moderate speed and the power draw stays well within the supply rating.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.4 GHz Xeon E5-2630v3 CPUs and H330 controller work with my existing 6 Gbps SAS drives?

Yes, the H330 12 Gbps RAID controller supports 6 Gbps SAS drives, so your existing drives will operate at their native speed alongside the two installed 900 GB 10K SAS drives.

How can I verify the dual Xeon E5-2630v3 processors and 64 GB DDR4 are recognised after installation?

During POST the BIOS will list both 8-core CPUs and show 64 GB total memory; iDRAC8 Lifecycle Controller also reports the same inventory in its hardware view.

Does the server ship with drive trays for all eight 2.5" bays and what must I supply myself?

Two trays come with the installed 900 GB SAS drives; the remaining six hot-plug bays need trays purchased separately, and no operating system is included.
