Rack server with 256GB DDR4

This 2U rack system ships with one Intel Xeon E5-2698 v4 processor running at 2.2GHz and 256GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays and an HPE Smart Array P440 SAS controller for internal storage. Dual 500W Flex Slot power supplies and an Intel I350/X540 network card with two 10GbE and two 1GbE ports are included.

Suited for virtualisation hosts needing high core

The single 20-core CPU and large memory footprint serve dense virtual-machine workloads or in-memory databases. Buyers who need dual-processor performance from day one or who require pre-installed drives should consider a different configuration. The unit arrives with firmware updated and no storage installed.

256GB DDR4 ECC registered memory installed

Memory uses DDR4 technology and fills a substantial portion of the 3TB maximum capacity. This specification determines whether the server can hold the working set for your application without adding modules. All other expansion depends on this baseline.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 8SFF chassis with one E5-2698 v4 or add a second processor?

The chassis supports up to two processors; the installed Xeon E5-2698 v4 runs at 2.2GHz with 20 cores and 50MB cache, so a second CPU would double thread count for heavily parallel workloads.

How does the 256GB DDR4 ECC Registered memory perform in a live database?

The 256GB DDR4 ECC Registered kit provides error-correcting capacity for large in-memory datasets, and the board can scale to 3TB if the workload grows beyond the current configuration.

What does the P440 PCIe SAS controller limit for drive speed?

The P440 PCIe SAS controller manages up to eight 2.5-inch SAS drives, capping each bay at the SAS interface speed while providing hardware RAID for redundancy.
