Quad-Socket 4U Server with 24 Hot-Swap Bays

The Supermicro SYS-8048B-TRFT is a 4U rackmount server system populated with four Intel Xeon E7-4820 v2 processors, each running at 2.0 GHz with eight cores. It arrives with 256 GB of DDR3 1600 MHz registered ECC memory installed across 32 modules. Twenty-four front-accessible 3.5-inch drive bays accept SAS or SATA drives and are served by an LSI MegaRAID 9361-8i controller with 1 GB cache and battery backup. Redundant 1620 W platinum power supplies and IPMI 2.0 with dedicated LAN complete the chassis.

Suited for Dense Storage and Legacy Memory Workloads

Organisations that need a single chassis holding many 3.5-inch drives and that rely on DDR3 registered ECC memory will find this configuration matches those requirements. The quad-socket layout provides 32 total cores for multi-threaded applications. Buyers who need more than eight internal RAID ports, faster memory technology or a smaller rack footprint should evaluate alternative platforms.

MegaRAID 9361-8i Controller with Eight SAS Ports

The installed LSI MegaRAID 9361-8i provides eight internal 12 Gb/s SAS ports supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. It includes 1 GB of cache protected by a battery backup unit. This controller determines how many drives can be managed directly and which RAID levels are available without adding an additional HBA.

Questions about this item

What rack space and power feeds must I reserve for this 4U server with four 1620 W supplies?

The chassis occupies 4U of rack height and requires four independent power connections for the redundant 1620 W Platinum supplies.

Can I keep using my existing 3.5" SAS and SATA drives with the MegaRAID 9361-8i controller?

Yes, the 24 hot-swap bays accept both SAS and SATA drives and the MegaRAID 9361-8i supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across them.

How do I confirm the IPMI 2.0 remote management is working after installation?

Connect the dedicated RJ45 IPMI LAN port, log in via browser to the IPMI interface and launch the KVM-over-LAN console to verify video and keyboard control.
