Questions about this item

Will the 12 installed 4 TB SATA drives work with my existing SAS backplane?

Yes, the PERC H730P controller supports both SAS and SATA drives on the same backplane, so the 12 x 4 TB SATA drives will operate alongside any SAS drives you keep.

How can I confirm the two Xeon Gold 6130 CPUs and 64 GB DDR4 memory are recognised after first boot?

Open the iDRAC9 Enterprise interface or enter the BIOS; both will show 2 processors, 16 cores each at 2.1 GHz, and 64 GB DDR4 across the memory slots.

Does the shipment include SFP+ modules for the 10 GbE ports and rail screws for my cabinet?

The box contains the 2U server, bezel, ready rails, two 750 W PSUs and the X520/I350 daughter card; SFP+ transceivers and cabinet mounting screws are not included.
