Purpose-built virtualization server
The Dell VXRail E560 10B is a 1U rackmount system designed for virtualization, databases, backups and application hosting. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6150 processors deliver 36 cores and 72 threads at 2.70GHz base frequency. 256GB of DDR4 ECC Registered memory supports multiple virtual machines and data-heavy workloads. Eight 1.2TB 10K RPM SAS drives provide hot-swap storage capacity for operating systems, applications and business data.
Compatibility checks
Verify that your rack provides a standard 1U slot and adequate airflow for a 60 weight unit. Confirm the power infrastructure supplies the connectors required by dual-processor Xeon LGA3647 platforms. Ensure your network switches support the dual 10GbE X540 and dual 1GbE I350 interfaces for full bandwidth utilization. Check that your management tools can integrate with the PERC H740P RAID controller for monitoring and configuration.
Bundled controller and networking impact
The included PERC H740P RAID controller manages the eight SAS drives with hardware RAID acceleration, simplifying array creation and ongoing maintenance. Dual 10GbE X540 ports enable high-throughput east-west traffic between cluster nodes or storage tiers. Dual 1GbE I350 ports handle management and lower-bandwidth services without consuming 10GbE capacity. Eight populated 2.5-inch bays leave two additional bays available for future storage expansion.

Questions about this item
Does the Dell VXRail E560 10B ship with rails cables and a power supply or do I need to order them separately?
The server arrives fully assembled with two Xeon Gold 6150 processors 256GB DDR4 ECC memory eight 1.2TB 10k SAS drives the H740P RAID controller dual 10GbE X540 and dual 1GbE I350 networking all installed in the 1U chassis.
Should I choose the 256GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory up to the 3TB maximum for my virtualization cluster?
The installed 256GB DDR4 ECC Registered memory fills a portion of the 3TB maximum and suits many virtualization workloads; additional DDR4 ECC Registered modules can be added later if your VM density grows.
What does the combined 36 cores and 72 threads at 2.70GHz mean for real-world VM density on this VXRail node?
The two 18-core Gold 6150 CPUs deliver 36 cores and 72 threads at 2.70GHz base providing strong multi-threaded throughput for running numerous virtual machines containers and compute-heavy applications simultaneously.
