Dual 14-core Xeon compute

This 2U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors running at 2.0 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo. The 28 combined cores and 256 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory suit midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, VDI, databases or HPC data nodes.

24-bay SAS storage and networking

Twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays connect to a Dell PERC H730 1 GB controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through. An Intel X520/I350 daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports. Dual 750 W platinum hot-swap power supplies and iDRAC 8 Enterprise complete the infrastructure kit.

Ready rails and bezel simplify deployment

Sliding rails and a front bezel are included so the chassis mounts in a standard rack without extra hardware. The configuration leaves no free CPU sockets and no empty drive bays, so buyers who want more processors or additional internal storage must choose a different platform.

Questions about this item

How many 2.5-inch drive bays does the chassis provide for sustained storage workloads?

The 2U chassis has 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch bays, all populated with 600GB 10K SAS drives.

What is the combined power draw of the two installed 750W platinum power supplies when the server runs continuously at full load?

Each supply is rated at 750W platinum efficiency; the pair provides redundant hot-swap power for the dual 14-core Xeons, 256GB DDR4, 24 drives and quad-port networking.

Which DDR4 memory speed and form factor must already be on hand to expand the 256GB installed across the 24 DIMM slots?

The system uses 2400MHz registered ECC DDR4 RDIMMs; 8x 32GB modules are installed and up to 1.5TB total is supported.
