Converged 5U chassis with dual M630 blades

The Dell VRTX combines a 5U rack enclosure with two M630 compute sleds, each fitted with an Intel E5-2680v4 14-core processor running at 2.4 GHz. Shared infrastructure includes twelve 20 TB 7.2K SAS drives, a single PERC S130 RAID controller, a 1 Gb switch module and four redundant 1600 W power supplies. Remote administration is handled by iDRAC8 Express and a single Chassis Management Controller.

Suited for dense virtualisation hosts

Organisations that need up to twelve 3.5-inch drive bays and two four-socket blades in one enclosure will match this configuration. Buyers who require a second RAID controller, 10 Gb switching or more than 128 GB of DDR4 memory should look at alternative platforms.

Dual 14-core CPUs and 128 GB DDR4 set the compute

Each M630 blade carries one E5-2680v4 with 35 MB cache, giving 28 cores total across the chassis. Memory is populated as eight 16 GB DDR4 modules per blade. This core count and memory capacity define the maximum consolidation ratio the system can sustain.
