DELL PowerEdge R750 2U Rack Server 2x Xeon Silver 4310 2.1GHz 12C 512GB DDR4 12x 8TB HBA355i

Dual Xeon Silver 4310 Server

This 2U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4310 processors at 2.1GHz with 12 cores each. It includes 512GB of DDR4 2666MHz registered ECC memory across 16 DIMM slots. Twelve 3.5-inch enterprise hard drives provide 8TB each at 7.2K RPM over a SATA 6Gb/s interface. The system targets organisations running databases, virtualisation or analytics workloads that need high core counts and large memory capacity.

HBA355i Storage and 10GbE Network

The PERC HBA355i controller operates in pass-through mode only, presenting the twelve drives to the operating system without hardware RAID. A Broadcom 57412 dual-port 10GbE SFP+ OCP 3.0 card supplies network connectivity for high-throughput traffic. iDRAC9 Enterprise enables full remote management including virtual console and power control. Two 1400 watt platinum power supplies deliver redundant hot-swap power. Ready rails and a front bezel are included for rack installation.

Rack Space and Memory Expansion

Verify that your rack can accommodate a 2U chassis and that power distribution supports dual 1400 watt supplies. The board offers 32 DDR4 slots total, so 16 remain free for expansion up to 2TB maximum capacity. Drive bays accept 3.5-inch SATA or SAS devices; 2.5-inch or NVMe configurations would require different backplanes. Ensure SFP+ transceivers and cabling are available for the 10GbE ports. Buyers who need hardware RAID or more than twelve drive bays should consider other configurations.
