DELL PowerEdge R750 2U 24-bay 2x Xeon Gold 5317 256GB 24x 600GB SAS

Enterprise rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R750 is a 2U rack server built for compute-intensive workloads such as virtualization, databases and analytics. Dual Intel Xeon Gold 5317 processors provide 24 cores at 3.0 GHz with a 3.6 GHz turbo frequency. The chassis holds 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays and ships with 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules.

Storage and controller upgrade path

The PERC H755 RAID controller with 8 GB NV cache supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, replacing older PERC generations that lack NVMe cache or broad RAID-level support. Twenty-four 600 GB 10K SAS drives deliver high IOPS for transactional workloads; the controller also manages SATA and NVMe media when the mix changes. Buyers who need more raw capacity than 600 GB per spindle or who require all-flash NVMe arrays without a SAS backplane should evaluate other configurations.

Sustained-load behaviour

Dual 1400 W platinum power supplies and redundant hot-swap cooling keep the system stable during prolonged peak utilisation across both CPUs and all drive bays. The iDRAC 9 Enterprise module provides continuous remote monitoring, telemetry and firmware updates without host downtime. Quad-port 1 GbE OCP 3.0 networking handles steady east-west traffic; environments that demand sustained 10 GbE or 25 GbE throughput will need additional NICs.
