2U Rack Server with Dual Gold 6126 CPUs

This 2U rack server ships with two Intel Gold 6126 processors, each running at 2.6GHz with 12 cores. It includes 512GB of DDR4 memory across sixteen 32GB modules. Six 960GB SATA SSDs are installed in the front bays. The system is aimed at organisations that need dense compute and storage in a standard rack footprint.

PCIe Gen 3 and 2.5-inch Bay Limits

The chassis provides up to eight PCIe Gen 3 expansion slots for additional controllers or network cards. Storage is limited to eight 2.5-inch drive bays, of which six are already populated with SSDs. The H730P RAID controller manages the installed drives and any further SATA devices added to the remaining bays. No optical drive bay is present.

Rack Depth Power and Remote Access Checks

Verify that your rack can accommodate the server depth and that 1100W redundant power supplies match your PDU connectors. The iDRAC9 Enterprise module requires a dedicated management network port for remote console and firmware updates. Ensure the two 10Gb RJ45 and two 1Gb RJ45 ports on the NDC align with your switch infrastructure.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 512 GB DDR4 configuration or add more modules later?

The server ships with 16 modules of 32 GB PC4-2400 DDR4 filling every slot, so the 512 GB total is already the maximum this chassis supports.

What does the 2.6 GHz clock on the Gold 6126 CPUs deliver in actual workloads?

Two Gold 6126 processors each run 12 cores at 2.6 GHz with 19.25 MB cache, giving 24 threads for parallel tasks such as virtualisation or database work.

How fast can the H730P controller move data from the six 960 GB SATA SSDs?

The H730P RAID controller manages the six 960 GB SATA SSDs over the internal SATA interface; throughput is limited by the SATA link speed of each drive.
