Server identity

This is a 2U rack-mounted server system built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3 processor with six cores running at 1.9GHz. It ships with 32GB of DDR4 memory and two 500GB SATA drives managed by the B140i software RAID controller. The chassis provides eight small-form-factor drive bays and dual 500W redundant power supplies.

Capacity and headroom

The installed 32GB of DDR4 matches the maximum capacity listed for this specific configuration, so no further memory can be added without replacing modules. Storage starts at 1TB raw across two drives and can expand within the eight 2.5-inch bays, though the B140i controller supports SATA only. The single CPU leaves one socket free for a second processor, raising the core ceiling to 36 if a compatible v3 or v4 Xeon is added.

Deciding specification

The B140i software RAID controller accepts SATA drives exclusively and cannot address SAS or NVME devices. Buyers who need hardware RAID, SAS connectivity, or NVME support must select a different controller or server model.

Questions about this item

Will the B140i controller work with my existing 2.5-inch SATA drives in the 8 SFF bays?

Yes, the B140i Software RAID supports SATA only and the server includes 8 SFF bays that accept 2.5-inch SATA drives; the two installed 500 GB 7.2K drives use the same interface.

How can I confirm the single Xeon E5-2609 v3 and 32 GB DDR4 are recognised after first boot?

Enter the System ROM or iLO interface during POST; both will show one six-core 1.9 GHz processor and 32 GB of registered ECC DDR4 across the 24 DIMM slots.

Which items ship with the server and what must I purchase separately for storage expansion?

The unit ships with one Xeon E5-2609 v3, 32 GB DDR4, two 500 GB 2.5-inch SATA drives with trays, two 500 W redundant power supplies and the B140i controller; additional drives, trays, a second processor or NVMe kits are not included.
