Dell VRTX 5U rack server with dual M630 blades

This Dell VRTX server is a 5U rack system that holds two PowerEdge M630 blade modules. Each blade carries a pair of Intel E5-2680v4 processors running at 2.4 GHz with 14 cores and 35 MB cache. The chassis provides 256 GB of DDR4 memory and twelve 3.5-inch bays filled with 12 TB 7.2K SAS drives.

Suited for dense virtualisation

The platform fits teams that want compute and capacity in a single 5U enclosure with redundant 1600 W power supplies and iDRAC8 Express remote management. Buyers who need more than eight PCIe slots, faster integrated networking than the 1 GB switch module, or additional RAID controllers should evaluate other architectures.

12 TB 7.2K SAS drives on an S130 controller

Storage is delivered by twelve 12 TB 7.2K SAS hard drives managed through the single PERC8 S130 RAID controller. This combination determines usable capacity, throughput and RAID options for the deployment.

Questions about this item

What PCIe interface does the VRTX 1GB switch module use and what throughput does it cap at?

The switch module connects through the chassis midplane and is limited to 1 Gbps per port.

What physical clearance and power budget does a full-height PCIe card need in the VRTX chassis?

Three full-height slots accept cards up to the chassis depth with 1600 W redundant PSUs shared across all blades.

How are the M630 blades seated and what step is often missed during installation?

Slide each blade into its bay until the lever locks, then attach the CMC cables before powering on.
