24-Bay Rack Server with Dual Xeon Silver

This 2U rack system ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4216 processors running at 2.1GHz and 128GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis provides 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H730P RAID controller. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 Enterprise, and dual 1100W power supplies are installed.

Ideal for dense storage workloads

Organisations needing high local drive count in a compact rack footprint will benefit from the 24-bay design and dual-socket performance. Buyers who require GPU acceleration or more than two processor sockets should consider alternative platforms. The integrated graphics and single 10GbE adapter also limit suitability for graphics-intensive or multi-port networking tasks.

24 x 2.5-inch drive bays define capacity

The 24SFF chassis determines how many drives you can install directly. With no drives included, you must populate the bays with SATA SSDs or HDDs supported by the PERC H730P controller. Maximum memory reaches 3TB, but the installed 128GB uses DDR4 ECC registered modules only.

Questions about this item

What rack depth is required for the 36-inch deep chassis?

The server measures 36 inches deep, so a standard 42-inch or deeper four-post rack provides enough clearance for cables and airflow at the rear.

How are the 2.5-inch drives installed in the 24-bay front panel?

Drives slide into the hot-swap carriers until the latch clicks; the step often missed is fully seating the carrier so the backplane connector engages and the status LED lights.

What memory modules are used when expanding beyond the installed 128GB DDR4?

Add DDR4 ECC Registered DIMMs; the board supports up to 3TB total across 24 slots, so populate remaining slots with matching speed modules.
