DELL VXRail E560 10B Rack Server 2× Xeon Gold 6136 64GB DDR4 8× 1.2TB SAS

Dell VXRail E560 10B Virtualization Server

The Dell VXRail E560 10B is a 1U rack server built for virtualization, databases, and high-speed transactional workloads. It runs on two Intel Xeon Gold 6136 processors delivering 24 total cores and 48 threads at a 3.00GHz base frequency. The system includes 64GB of DDR4 ECC Registered memory and eight 1.2TB 10K RPM SAS drives. A PERC H740P RAID controller manages the storage array.

Compatibility Checklist Before Ordering

Verify that your rack provides a 1U slot and sufficient power and cooling for a 60kg unit. Confirm the PERC H740P controller matches your existing RAID topology and that 2.5-inch hot-swap SAS bays suit your drive replacement workflow. Ensure network uplinks can use the dual 10GbE X540 and dual 1GbE I350 ports provided. The server ships without an operating system, so prepare your hypervisor or OS installation media separately.

Sustained Load Behaviour

Under continuous virtualization or database load the dual Gold 6136 CPUs maintain their 3.00GHz base clock across all 24 cores, while the 10K SAS drives supply steady IOPS for write-heavy applications. The H740P controller offloads parity calculations to keep CPU cycles free for guest workloads. DDR4 ECC memory corrects single-bit errors without interrupting long-running services. The compact 1U chassis relies on front-to-rear airflow, so consistent inlet temperatures are necessary to avoid throttling during extended duty cycles.
