2U rack server for mixed workloads
The Dell PowerEdge R760 is a 2U rack server built for mixed workload standardisation, database and analytics, and virtual desktop infrastructure. It supports up to two Intel Xeon Scalable processors on the Intel C741 chipset. The chassis ships with no processors or memory installed, letting you configure the platform for the target application.
32 DDR5 slots and GPU density
The system provides 32 DDR5 DIMM slots with a maximum capacity of 8TB and speeds up to 5600 MT/s on 5th Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors. It replaces platforms limited to fewer memory channels or lower GPU density by supporting up to 6 single-wide or 2 double-wide GPUs. The upgrade is worth it when workloads demand large memory footprints and accelerator cards in a 2U form factor.
Flexible front and rear storage bays
Front bays accept up to 12 x 3.5-inch SAS/SATA drives, up to 24 x 2.5-inch SAS/SATA/NVMe drives, or up to 16 x EDSFF E3.S Gen5 NVMe drives. Rear bays add up to 4 x 2.5-inch SAS/SATA/NVMe devices. This layout frees up rack space by consolidating high-capacity storage and compute in one enclosure, while the integrated security features such as TPM 2.0 and Silicon Root of Trust protect the platform without extra hardware.

Questions about this item
What rack height does the PowerEdge R760 require?
The PowerEdge R760 is a 2U rack server, so it needs 2U of vertical space in a standard rack.
How are the DDR5 memory modules installed, and what step is often missed?
Populate the 32 DDR5 slots according to the processor configuration; the common error is not balancing DIMMs across both processor channels for full 5600 MT/s speed.
When will the TPM 2.0 module need attention?
The TPM 2.0 FIPS and CC-TCG certified module is soldered to the board and does not require replacement; only firmware updates via iDRAC9 are needed over the server life.
