36-bay 4U storage server

The Supermicro SYS-6048R-E1CR36N is a 4U rackmount server system built for high-density storage. Dual Intel Xeon E5-2690 v4 processors with 14 cores each provide 28 total cores at 2.6 GHz. The system includes 768 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a MegaRAID 9361-8i controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60.

Suited for dense SAS or SATA arrays

This server targets workloads that need up to 36 hot-swap 3.5-inch drive bays served by dual 10 GbE networking and IPMI 2.0 management. Buyers who need GPU compute, front-panel media bays, or more than eight internal RAID ports should evaluate alternative platforms. The fixed 1280 W redundant power supplies also limit modular PSU choices.

Eight-port 12 Gb/s RAID controller decides fit

The installed MegaRAID 9361-8i delivers eight internal SAS 12 Gb/s lanes with 1 GB cache and battery backup. If the storage design requires more than eight direct controller ports, additional HBAs or a different RAID card must be sourced. All 36 bays connect through this single controller or expanders not included in the base configuration.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum TDP per processor the system is designed to cool under sustained load?

The chassis supports processors up to 145W TDP, so sustained full-load operation stays within that thermal envelope.

How loud are the fans and what is the total power draw when all 36 drive bays and both CPUs run continuously?

Two 1280W 80 Plus Platinum supplies deliver redundant power; fan speed ramps with inlet temperature to keep components within spec.

Which rails and front bezel must I supply myself before the server can be mounted in a standard rack?

The manufacturer notes that rack-mount rails and the front bezel are not included with the system.
