DELL QUO-25539853-M9V4K5 PowerEdge R260 rack server Pentium G7400 3.7G 5600MT/s DDR5

1U rack server for entry workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R260 is a 1U rackmount server built around an Intel Pentium G7400 running at 3.7 GHz with two cores and four threads. It targets small businesses or branch offices that need a dedicated host for lightweight services such as file sharing, print queues or a single virtual machine. The 46 W processor keeps thermal output modest for dense racks.

5600 MT/s DDR5 with two UDIMM slots

Memory runs at 5600 MT/s using UDIMM modules, giving enough bandwidth for basic database or web workloads. Only two DIMM sockets are populated, so total capacity tops out quickly compared with larger PowerEdge models. RAID 1 across the hot-plug 2.5 inch drive bays protects against a single drive failure but offers no capacity gain.

Hot-plug SAS/SATA bays and TPM 2.0

The 2.5 inch chassis accepts SAS or SATA drives that can be swapped without downtime, while a cabled power supply keeps cabling simple in shallow racks. A Trusted Platform Module 2.0 V6 provides hardware root of trust for encryption keys and secure boot. The single-CPU layout limits expansion, so buyers who need additional PCIe slots or a second processor should look elsewhere.
