Supermicro SYS-6018U-TR4T+ 1U rack server 2x Xeon E5-2683 v4 128GB DDR4 4x 3.5" bays

1U Dual Xeon E5-2683 v4 Server

This 1U rackmount system delivers dual Intel Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors, each with 16 cores at 2.1 GHz and a 3.0 GHz turbo frequency. It includes 128 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory across eight DIMM slots. A MegaRAID 9361-8i controller manages the four hot-plug 3.5-inch SATA/SAS drive bays. Quad 10GBase-T ports and IPMI 2.0 provide high-speed networking and remote management.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing dense compute

The 1U form factor and dual 750 W platinum power supplies fit space-constrained racks requiring redundancy. Buyers who need more than four 3.5-inch drive bays or larger memory capacity than 128 GB should evaluate other platforms. The LGA 2011-3 socket limits processor upgrades to the E5-2600 v3/v4 family. No GPU expansion is supported beyond the integrated Matrox G200.

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

The storage subsystem centres on four front-accessible 3.5-inch trays connected to an LSI MegaRAID 9361-8i controller with 1 GB cache and battery backup. Supported RAID levels include 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for SATA and SAS drives. This bay count and controller combination determines how much local storage the server can present to the operating system.
