Dual Xeon E5-2699 v3 18-core compute

This 2U rack server delivers dual Intel Xeon E5-2699 v3 processors, each with 18 cores at 2.3 GHz and 3.6 GHz turbo. It targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure, databases and high-performance computing data nodes.

Sustained throughput with 512 GB DDR4 ECC

The system operates with 512 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 modules, leaving 8 of 24 slots free for expansion up to 1.5 TB. Redundant hot-swap 750 W platinum power supplies and the PERC H730 1 GB controller with battery-backed cache maintain consistent performance under continuous load.

24-bay 2.5" SAS/SATA storage limit

Twenty-four front-accessible 2.5-inch bays connect through the 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA PERC H730 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through. The factory configuration includes two 300 GB 10 K SAS drives, so capacity scales only within the 24-bay chassis and SAS/SATA interface.
