DELL PowerEdge R750 12-Bay 3.5" 2U Rack Server 2x Xeon Gold 5317 3.0GHz 128GB DDR4 12x 4TB H755

12-Bay 3.5" 2U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R750 is a 2U rack server with twelve 3.5-inch drive bays. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5317 processors running at 3.0 GHz with a 3.6 GHz turbo. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 2933 MHz registered ECC memory across eight modules. A PERC H755 RAID controller with 8 GB NV cache manages the twelve 4 TB 7.2K SATA drives.

Suits virtualisation and database workloads

This configuration fits teams that need dense 3.5-inch storage and dual-socket compute in a 2U form factor. The quad-port 1 GbE OCP 3.0 adapter and iDRAC 9 Enterprise support remote management. Buyers who need 2.5-inch NVMe density or higher single-thread clock speeds should evaluate other platforms.

PERC H755 with 8 GB NV cache

The Dell PERC H755 controller provides hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 with a battery-backed 8 GB non-volatile cache. It connects to the twelve SATA drives through the 12Gb/s SAS backend. This controller choice determines the supported RAID levels and cache protection for the installed drive set.
