Dell VRTX converged 5U chassis

The Dell VRTX combines two M630 compute blades with shared storage and networking in a single 5U rack enclosure. Dual E5-2650v4 processors deliver twenty-four cores at 2.2 GHz across both blades. 128 GB of DDR4 memory and twelve 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives provide a consolidated platform for virtualisation and database workloads.

Suited for dense virtualisation hosts

Organisations needing a blade-style architecture with integrated switching and redundant 1600 W power supplies will fit this system. Buyers who require additional drive bays beyond the twelve 3.5" slots or who need higher single-thread frequency should evaluate alternative configurations.

Twelve 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives

The storage subsystem is fixed at twelve 3.5-inch bays populated with 2.4 TB SAS disks behind a single S130 controller. Capacity and spindle count cannot be expanded inside this chassis.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the chassis get with four 1600W power supplies running continuously?

The system uses four redundant 1600W power supplies in a 5U rack chassis; actual acoustic and thermal output depends on load and room airflow.

What cabling and network gear are required to use the integrated 1GB switch module?

The VRTX 1GB switch module provides standard 1GbE connectivity; you supply Ethernet patch cables and an upstream switch with free 1GbE ports.

Can the existing PERC8 RAID controller and S130 controller manage the twelve 2.4TB 10K SAS drives together?

The PERC8 RAID controller and the S130 controller both connect to the 12-bay backplane, allowing the installed 2.4TB 10K SAS drives to be configured across either controller.
