Questions about this item

What does the 2.6 GHz clock speed mean for actual workloads?

Each of the two Xeon E5-2640 v3 processors runs at 2.6 GHz base and can reach 3.4 GHz turbo across its eight cores, giving 16 total cores for parallel tasks such as virtualization or database queries.

What does the PERC H730 controller’s 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA interface limit in practice?

The controller connects the twelve 6 TB SATA drives at up to 12 Gb/s and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, so throughput is capped by the drive’s 7.2 K RPM SATA speed rather than the controller link.

What rack depth and mounting hardware does the 2U chassis require?

The 2U rackmount chassis includes Ready Rails for standard four-post racks and ships with a front bezel, fitting a typical 2U space without extra brackets.
