Purpose-Built Virtualisation Server
The Dell VXRail E560 10B is a 2U rack server designed for virtualised workloads such as VDI, databases and high-availability applications. Two Intel Xeon Gold 5122 processors run at 3.60GHz with four cores each, delivering strong per-core performance. 256GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory supports dense virtual-machine deployments. Ten 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays with trays included allow flexible storage configuration.
Installation Notes
The chassis uses tool-less rails and front-access hot-swap bays so drives and memory can be changed without removing the server from the rack. A PERC H740P RAID controller with 12Gb/s SAS support simplifies array creation through the integrated lifecycle controller. Dual 10GbE X540 and 1GbE I350 ports provide separate networks for storage and management traffic. The system ships without an operating system, so the hypervisor must be installed before production use.
Deciding Specification
Maximum memory capacity is 3TB across the available DIMM slots when all sockets are populated. This ceiling determines whether the platform can grow with future workload consolidation or if a larger node is required. The dual-socket LGA3647 design is already fully populated, so CPU upgrades are not possible. Buyers who need more than 3TB of RAM or additional processor sockets should evaluate a different server class.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the server is operating correctly after racking it?
Watch the front-panel LEDs — power, Ethernet and USB indicators — and confirm the PERC H740P controller initializes during POST; the 3.6 GHz Xeon Gold 5122 CPUs and 256 GB DDR4 ECC memory should report without errors.
What ships with the unit and which items must be sourced separately?
The chassis includes 10 hot-swap 2.5-inch drive trays, the H740P RAID controller and dual 10 GbE X540 plus 1 GbE I350 network ports; storage drives and an operating system are not included and must be purchased separately.
Which capacity or version should I select for a virtualization cluster needing maximum memory headroom?
This 256 GB DDR4 configuration supports expansion up to 3 TB across the two Xeon Gold 5122 sockets, so choose it when you plan to grow memory later; the 10-bay chassis and H740P controller also allow flexible drive selection.
