36-Bay 4U Storage Server

The Supermicro SYS-6048R-E1CR36N is a 4U rackmount server designed for high-density storage environments. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2690 v4 processors, each delivering 14 cores at 2.6 GHz, and 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory. This configuration targets enterprises that need massive raw capacity in a single chassis.

36 Hot-Swap 3.5-Inch Drive Bays

The defining specification is the 36 hot-swap bays that accept 3.5-inch SATA or SAS drives, split between 24 front and 12 rear positions. An LSI MegaRAID 9361-8i controller with 1 GB cache and battery backup provides hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. No drives are included, so buyers must supply their own media.

Dual 1280 W Platinum Power Supplies

Two redundant 1280 W 80 Plus Platinum power supplies share the load, keeping the system running if one unit fails. Quad 10GBase-T ports driven by an Intel X540 controller deliver sustained high-throughput networking, while IPMI 2.0 with dedicated LAN enables remote KVM and virtual media management during extended operations.

Questions about this item

What does the 2.6 GHz base clock on the dual Xeon E5-2690 v4 CPUs mean for sustained workloads?

Each processor runs at 2.6 GHz with 14 cores and can boost to 3.5 GHz, giving 28 total cores for parallel tasks such as virtualization or database work.

What does the 12 Gb/s SAS link on the MegaRAID 9361-8i controller cap in practice?

The eight-port controller connects to the backplanes at 12 Gb/s per lane and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for the 36 drive bays.

What rack depth and rails does the 4U chassis need to mount?

The CSE-847BE1C-R1K28LPB chassis is a 4U rackmount unit; rails and front bezel are not included, so you must supply compatible sliding rails for your cabinet depth.
