Supermicro SYS-6028U-TR4T+ 2U rack server 2× Xeon E5-2690 v4 14-core 2.6 GHz 512 GB DDR4 12-bay 3.5

Dual 14-Core Xeon 2U Server

This 2U rack server ships with two Xeon E5-2690 v4 processors running at 2.60 GHz, each providing 14 cores for a total of 28 threads. It includes 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 slots and a MegaRAID 9361-8i controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Quad 10GBase-T ports and dual 1000 W power supplies complete the package.

Suits virtualization hosts needing many cores

The dual-socket layout and large memory capacity fit database, cloud or virtualization workloads that benefit from high thread counts and fast Ethernet. The LGA 2011-3 platform limits CPU upgrades to the E5-2600 v3 or v4 families, so buyers who need newer instruction sets or higher per-core speeds should look elsewhere. No drives are included, so storage must be sourced separately.

12-bay 3.5-inch hot-swap chassis

Twelve front-accessible 3.5-inch trays accept SATA or SAS drives and connect to the 8-port MegaRAID 9361-8i controller. The backplane and controller combination determines how many arrays can be active at once, making bay count and controller port count the key constraint for storage-heavy deployments.
