Dual Xeon Silver 4215R Platform

This 2U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4215R processors running at 3.2 GHz. Each CPU provides eight cores and 11 MB cache. The system is aimed at organisations that need a dense, dual-socket compute node for virtualisation, database or general-purpose workloads.

Eight 3.5" SATA Bays with PERC H730P

Storage connects through a Dell PERC H730P RAID controller to eight front-accessible 3.5-inch drive bays using the SATA interface. The controller supports hardware RAID levels for redundancy and performance. No drives are installed, so capacity and speed depend entirely on the disks you add.

128 GB DDR4 ECC Registered Memory

The unit arrives with 128 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across the available DIMM slots. The platform can scale to 3 TB maximum capacity when fully populated. Current headroom suits moderate virtualisation clusters; memory-intensive analytics or large in-memory databases will require additional modules.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 128 GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory later?

The system ships with 128 GB DDR4 ECC Registered installed and supports up to 3 TB total, so you can start with the factory amount and expand as workloads grow.

What does the 3.2 GHz Xeon Silver 4215R speed mean for actual workloads?

Each of the two 4215R processors runs at 3.2 GHz with eight cores and 11 MB cache, giving strong single-thread performance for database queries and virtualization tasks.

How does the PERC H730P controller and SATA interface limit drive performance?

The H730P RAID controller manages the eight 3.5-inch bays over SATA, so maximum throughput is capped by the SATA link speed of each installed drive.
