- Dual Xeon Gold 5415+ CPUs deliver 16 cores at 2.9 GHz base with 4.1 GHz turbo
- 768 GB DDR5-4800 ECC memory across 24 modules supports large-scale virtualization and databases
- PERC H965i RAID controller with 8 GB NV cache enables RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 for NVMe and SAS/SATA drives
- Sixteen 2.5" hot-swap bays plus OCP 3.0 quad-port 1 GbE provide flexible storage and networking density
- Dual 1400 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Datacenter ensure resilient power and remote management
Server purpose
The Dell PowerEdge R760 is a 2U rack server built for enterprise workloads that demand high compute density and large memory capacity. It suits virtualization clusters, database platforms and software-defined storage nodes.
Storage controller impact
The PERC H965i controller with 8 GB non-volatile cache enables hardware RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the sixteen 2.5-inch bays, including NVMe devices. This accelerates array rebuilds and protects in-flight data during power loss.
Build and connectivity
Redundant hot-swap 1400 W platinum power supplies and a quad-port 1 GbE OCP 3.0 card provide resilience and baseline networking. The iDRAC9 Datacenter module delivers full remote management, while included ready rails and front bezel simplify rack installation.

Questions about this item
How often should the 1400 Watt platinum power supplies be inspected or replaced in a 2U rack running 24/7?
Dell rates the 1400 W platinum units for continuous operation; inspect fans and connectors during scheduled downtime and replace only if a unit reports a fault via iDRAC9.
Which component hits its limit first when all 16 drive bays and both Xeon Gold 5415+ CPUs run at 4.1 GHz turbo for hours?
The 1400 W power budget and chassis airflow become the limiting factors before the CPUs or H965i controller throttle under sustained full load.
What noise and heat levels should I expect from the R760 with 24 DDR5-4800 modules and dual 1400 W PSUs running all day?
Expect data-centre grade acoustics — multiple high-speed fans move significant airflow, so the 2U chassis runs warm and audible, suitable for a server room not an office.
