DELL PowerEdge R750 2U Rack Server 2x Xeon Silver 4310 2.1GHz 12-Core 768GB DDR4 H755 24x 960GB SSD

Dual-socket Xeon server for virtualisation workloads

The PowerEdge R750 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4310 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 12 cores. It ships with 768 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots. The system targets organisations consolidating virtual machines, databases or analytics workloads that benefit from high core counts and large memory capacity.

Upgrade path from single-socket

Moving from a single-processor server or a dual-socket system with fewer than 12 cores per CPU adds 24 total cores and supports up to 32 DIMM slots for future expansion. The jump is worth it when workloads exceed the thread count or memory bandwidth of existing hardware, especially for database caching or dense virtualisation clusters. The PERC H755 controller with 8 GB NV cache supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for flexible storage resilience.

24-bay 2.5-inch chassis

The 24 drive bays are populated with 960 GB SATA SSDs, leaving no empty slots for additional 2.5-inch drives without removing existing units. Two 1400 W platinum hot-swap power supplies provide redundancy. A Broadcom 57412 dual-port 10 GbE SFP+ OCP 3.0 card handles high-speed network connectivity. iDRAC 9 Enterprise enables remote management. Builders needing 3.5-inch drives, NVMe-only storage or more than two processors should evaluate other platforms.
