Dell VRTX 5U chassis with twelve drive bays

This is a Dell PowerEdge VRTX server system in a 5U rack chassis. It arrives with two M630 compute blades, each equipped with two Intel E5-2687Wv3 processors running at 3.1 GHz with ten cores and 25 MB cache. The chassis holds twelve 12 TB 7.2K SAS drives and provides 128 GB of DDR4 memory across the blades. A single S130 storage controller, a 1 GB switch module and four redundant 1600 W power supplies complete the platform.

Suited for dense storage

Organisations that need a consolidated block-storage platform with integrated compute blades will match this configuration. The twelve 3.5-inch bays are fully populated, so buyers who require empty bays for future expansion or who need a different drive interface should look elsewhere. The single CMC and single PERC8 RAID controller also mean there is no redundant management or RAID path built in.

Twelve 12 TB 7.2K SAS drives define the storage tier

The installed drive count and capacity set the raw storage baseline for this system. The S130 controller manages the array, and the 1 GB switch module handles blade networking. If the workload demands a different drive type, a higher-speed fabric or a dual-controller RAID topology, this unit does not meet those requirements.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm both M630 blades and all twelve 12 TB SAS drives are detected after powering on the VRTX?

Open the iDRAC8 Express web interface or the CMC dashboard; both blades should show 128 GB DDR4 and dual E5-2687Wv3 CPUs, while the PERC8 S130 controller lists all twelve 12 TB 7.2K SAS drives in a healthy array.

What ships inside the 5U VRTX chassis and what must I supply myself?

The chassis arrives with 2 M630 blades, 2 x E5-2687Wv3 3.1 GHz 10C CPUs, 128 GB DDR4 (8 x 16 GB), 12 x 12 TB 7.2K SAS drives, 4 x 1600 W redundant PSUs, a 1 Gb switch module, single PERC8 S130 RAID controller, single CMC and 8 flexible PCIe slots; you add any PCIe cards, OS licences and rack rails.

Which VRTX configuration matches a workload needing maximum internal storage and dual 10-core CPUs per blade?

This exact build provides the highest drive count — twelve 3.5-inch bays filled with 12 TB SAS drives — plus two M630 blades each equipped with dual E5-2687Wv3 3.1 GHz 10-core processors and 128 GB DDR4.
