DELL PowerEdge R760 2U Rack Server 2x Xeon Platinum 8468 48 Core 1TB DDR5 H965i 4x 1.92TB 5720 iDRAC9 2x 1400W

Dell PowerEdge R760 2U 16-Bay Server

This Dell PowerEdge R760 is a 2U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8468 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with a 3.8 GHz turbo and 48 cores. The system ships with 1 TB of DDR5-4800 ECC registered memory across 32 populated slots. A Dell PERC H965i RAID controller with 8 GB NV cache manages four 1.92 TB SATA SSDs in the 16-bay 2.5-inch chassis. Dual 1400 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Datacenter remote management are included.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

Organisations running virtualisation clusters, AI training, large databases or software-defined storage will use the 96 total cores, high memory bandwidth and NVMe-ready backplane. Buyers who need more than two sockets, more than 8 TB of memory or GPU-dense compute should evaluate alternative platforms. Environments limited to 1 GbE uplinks without additional NICs may also require extra networking cards.

Specification that decides fit

The PERC H965i controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across SAS, SATA and NVMe drives. If your deployment requires hardware RAID with NVMe caching for mixed drive types this server matches; if you need a different RAID feature set or controller form factor, choose another system.
