DELL PowerEdge R750 2U 24-Bay 2x Xeon Silver 4316 2.3GHz 20-Core 128GB DDR4 24x 960GB SSD H755

Dual 20-core Xeon 4316 2U server

This 2U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4316 processors running at 2.3 GHz with 3.4 GHz turbo. Twenty cores per CPU provide forty threads for virtualisation, databases and analytics. One hundred and twenty-eight gigabytes of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory occupy eight of thirty-two slots. Twenty-four 960 GB SATA SSDs sit behind a PERC H755 RAID controller with 8 GB NV cache. Dual 1400 watt platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise complete the package.

Suited for dense virtualisation

Organisations needing high core counts and large local flash capacity in a 2U form factor will benefit. Buyers requiring more than thirty-two DIMM slots or more than twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays should evaluate larger chassis options. Workloads demanding NVMe-only arrays or GPU acceleration cannot be satisfied by this configuration. The fixed two-processor maximum limits future CPU expansion.

PERC H755 RAID controller with 8 GB cache

The Dell PERC H755 PCIe controller manages the twenty-four SATA SSDs and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Its 8 GB non-volatile cache with battery backup protects write performance during power loss. This single component determines the achievable storage redundancy, rebuild speed and IOPS ceiling for the entire array.
