1U Xeon 6 server chassis
The Dell PowerEdge R670 is a 1U rack server designed for general-purpose workloads. It supports up to two Intel Xeon 6 processors and uses DDR5 memory across 32 slots. The system ships without CPUs or memory installed, allowing custom configuration. It suits organisations building dense compute clusters or virtualisation hosts.
Security firmware and flexible PCIe risers
Cryptographically signed firmware, Secure Boot and a silicon root of trust protect the boot chain. Data-at-rest encryption is available with self-encrypting drives and local or external key management. Two front-accessible risers provide up to two x16 Gen5 PCIe slots each, configurable as full-height half-length, full-length or OCP 3.0 modules. An additional rear riser supports up to three x16 or two x8 Gen5 low-profile slots.
Check CPU cooler clearance
Verify that your selected Xeon 6 processors include compatible 1U heatsinks, as none are included. Choose a backplane configuration before ordering: options range from eight E3.S NVMe bays up to twenty E3.S Gen5 bays, plus 2.5-inch alternatives. Ensure your rack depth accommodates the 32.09 to 32.20 inch chassis length and 45.02 lb weight. Confirm power supply redundancy requirements match the chosen configuration.
