2U rack server with 24 drive bays

This 2U rack server provides up to 24 hot-plug 2.5" bays for SAS or SATA drives and a Perc H730 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. It ships with a single Xeon E5-2609 v3 at 1.9 GHz, 8 GB DDR4 and three 900 GB 10 K SAS drives.

Suits high-capacity arrays; not for heavy compute

This server suits buyers who need a high drive-count platform for SAS or SATA arrays with hardware RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60. It is not for workloads that require multiple processors, large memory footprints or 10 GbE networking without an optional daughter card.

Single E5-2609 v3 limits compute headroom

The installed processor is a single six-core Xeon E5-2609 v3 at 1.9 GHz with a maximum of two sockets supported. Memory is capped at 8 GB in the current configuration though the board offers 24 DDR4 slots for future expansion.

Questions about this item

How deep is the 2U chassis so I can confirm it fits my rack?

The chassis is 26.8 inches deep, 17.44 inches wide and 3.4 inches high, weighing 60 lbs.

What is the correct order for installing the PERC H730 RAID controller and the three 900 GB SAS drives?

Seat the H730 in the dedicated RAID slot, insert the drives into the front 2.5-inch hot-plug bays, then configure RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 in the controller BIOS before installing an OS.

Which components are hot-swappable and will need replacement over time?

The 24 x 2.5-inch SAS/SATA drive bays, the two 750 W redundant power supplies and the system fans are all hot-swappable for later replacement.
