Supermicro SYS-6028U-TR4T+ 2U rack server 2× Xeon E5-2690 v4 2.6 GHz 14-core 256 GB DDR4 12-bay 3.5

Dual-socket Xeon 2U server

The Supermicro SYS-6028U-TR4T+ is a 2U rackmount server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2690 v4 processors. Each CPU runs at 2.6 GHz with 14 cores, giving 28 threads in total. The system ships with 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules. Twelve hot-plug 3.5-inch drive bays accept SATA or SAS drives for high-capacity storage.

Suited for virtualisation and database hosts

This configuration fits workloads that demand dual-socket compute density, 10 GbE networking and hardware RAID in a 2U form factor. The four-port Intel X540 controller and MegaRAID 9361-8i with battery-backed cache support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Buyers who need more than two sockets or more than twelve 3.5-inch bays should look at larger platforms.

Twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug bays with MegaRAID 9361-8i

The chassis provides twelve front-accessible 3.5-inch trays wired to an eight-port LSI MegaRAID 9361-8i controller. That controller limits simultaneous drive connections to eight ports, so a fully populated bay requires additional cabling or a second controller. Confirm the port count matches your planned array size before ordering.
