Dual 14-core Xeon server with 24-bay storage

This 2U rack system ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors at 2.40 GHz, 256GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory, a PERC H730 1GB controller, and two 800GB SATA SSDs. Dual 750W platinum power supplies, iDRAC8 Enterprise, quad-port networking, rails and bezel are included.

Suited for dense storage and virtualisation.

The 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch bays and H730 controller support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, making the chassis a good fit for database, VDI or HPC data-node roles. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or more than two sockets should look at a different platform.

24-bay 2.5-inch front storage with H730 RAID

The single specification that decides fit is the 24-bay 2.5-inch front storage served by the PERC H730 1GB controller. If the workload needs that bay count and RAID flexibility in 2U, this server matches; if it needs a different drive form factor or controller, it does not.

Questions about this item

What rack height and rail type are needed to mount this 2U server?

The server occupies 2U of rack space and ships with Ready Rails for standard square-hole or round-hole cabinets.

Can the PERC H730 controller manage both the installed 800GB SATA SSDs and additional 2.5" SAS drives together?

Yes, the H730 supports SAS and SATA simultaneously across the 24-bay backplane, allowing mixed drive types in the same array or separate virtual disks.

How can I confirm the iDRAC8 Enterprise licence is active after first boot?

Log into the iDRAC web interface; the dashboard will display "iDRAC8 Enterprise" and show full remote-console, virtual-media and dedicated NIC features enabled.
