2U rack server with twelve 3.5-inch bays

This 2U rack server houses dual Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3 six-core processors running at 1.9 GHz and 32 GB of DDR4 memory across twenty-four DIMM slots. It targets IT teams needing dense, hot-pluggable storage in a standard rack footprint.

Twelve hot-plug bays with H730 RAID

Twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug bays accept SAS or SATA drives and connect to a Dell PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and six PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated RAID slot leave room for additional I/O cards.

Sustained throughput from 7.2 K SAS drives

Three installed 2 TB 7.2 K SAS drives deliver steady sequential throughput for archival, backup or near-line workloads. The H730 controller maintains consistent write performance under extended RAID rebuilds or parity calculations, while iDRAC8 remote management monitors thermals and power without host OS involvement.

Questions about this item

Does the installed memory already reach the 32GB maximum shown in the specifications?

Yes, the server ships with 32GB of DDR4 installed, which matches the listed maximum capacity.

How loud or hot does the 2U chassis get when both 750W redundant supplies run continuously?

Two 750W redundant hot-swap power supplies share the load, and the 12-bay 3.5-inch chassis uses front-to-rear airflow designed for sustained data-centre operation.

What network connection does the included daughter card provide out of the box?

The fitted daughter card delivers four 1GbE ports; optional NDC upgrades can add 10GbE connectivity.
