DELL PowerEdge R750 2U rack server 2x Xeon Silver 4316 2.3GHz 20C 512GB DDR4 24x 2.5" H755 2x 1400W

Scalable compute for virtualised workloads

This 2U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4316 processors, each running at 2.3 GHz with 20 cores, delivering 40 cores total for dense virtualisation and database tasks. The system includes 512 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 modules, leaving 16 slots free for future expansion. iDRAC 9 Enterprise provides full out-of-band remote management from day one.

Front-access storage and redundant power

Twenty-four 2.5-inch SAS/SATA trays are accessible from the front, allowing hot-swap drive changes without pulling the chassis from the rack. The Dell PERC H755 controller with 8 GB NV cache and battery backs RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for flexible data protection. Dual 1400 W platinum power supplies and a Broadcom 57412 dual-port 10 GbE SFP+ OCP 3.0 card are both hot-swappable, keeping network and power paths live during maintenance.

Replaces older 2U platforms lacking PCIe Gen4

Organisations moving from earlier generation servers gain doubled PCIe throughput and support for NVMe drives without changing rack footprint. The jump is worth it when workloads demand higher core counts, faster memory speeds up to 3200 MT/s, or the storage density of 24 front bays in a 2U form factor. Buyers needing 3.5-inch drive bays or more than two processor sockets should evaluate alternative chassis.
