Four-socket Xeon Gold 6142 server

This 3U rack server ships with four Intel Xeon Gold 6142 processors, each running at 2.6 GHz with sixteen cores. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across forty-eight slots. It targets organisations running memory-intensive workloads such as in-memory databases or large-scale virtualisation.

PERC H730P controller and quad-port networking

The Dell PERC H730P storage controller provides 2 GB cache and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. A battery protects cached writes during power loss. The Intel X520/I350 daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports for flexible network connectivity.

3U form factor with eight 2.5-inch drive bays

The chassis fits in a standard 3U rack space and holds up to eight 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives on the included trays. Four processor sockets are already populated, so no further CPU expansion is possible. Buyers needing more internal storage bays or additional CPU sockets will need a different platform.
