Server purpose

This 2U rack server ships with a single six-core Xeon E5-2609 v3 at 1.9 GHz and 16 GB of DDR4 ECC memory. It is aimed at buyers who need a ready-to-run compute node for virtualisation hosts, database clusters or general-purpose workloads in a standard rack cabinet.

Build integration

The chassis provides twelve 3.5-inch LFF bays, two of which are filled with 600 GB 15 K SAS drives, leaving ten open slots for additional storage. A second processor can be added to reach 36 total cores and the 24 DIMM slots support up to 3 TB of DDR4, so memory and CPU headroom remain available as demands grow.

Included accessories

The H240ar controller enables RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across SAS and SATA devices without a separate card. Dual 500 W hot-swap power supplies deliver redundancy from day one, and the Matrox G200eH2 graphics chip handles basic console output so no discrete GPU is required for initial setup.

Questions about this item

What limits the installed memory to 16 GB even though the server has 24 DIMM slots?

The single E5-2609 v3 processor supports a maximum of 16 GB DDR4, so the 24 slots cannot be filled beyond that limit without adding a second CPU.

How much power do the redundant supplies draw when the system runs continuously?

Each supply is rated at 500 W; with two installed the server can draw up to 500 W total while maintaining redundancy.

Which drive bays and cabling are required to add more storage beyond the two 600 GB SAS drives?

The chassis provides 12 LFF 3.5-inch SAS bays with an H240ar controller; additional drives need compatible SAS trays and cables for the backplane.
