Dual Xeon E5-2643 v3 3.4GHz compute

This 2U rack server ships with two six-core Intel Xeon E5-2643 v3 processors running at 3.4GHz. It targets workloads that need strong single-thread performance and up to 24 virtual threads in hyper-threading mode. The system suits virtualisation hosts, database nodes or application tiers that benefit from high clock speed rather than maximum core count. Buyers who want more storage bays or GPU acceleration should look elsewhere.

B140i SATA RAID and 8 SFF bay constraint

The onboard B140i controller provides software RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 for SATA drives only. It cannot manage SAS or NVME devices, so the eight 2.5-inch bays are limited to SATA media. Expanding beyond the factory two-drive configuration requires additional SATA disks and trays. The chassis reserves bay 2 and bay 3 for optional NVME or extra SFF cages, but those upgrades need separate controllers not included here.

64GB DDR4 at processor limit

Sixty-four gigabytes of DDR4 ECC registered memory fill the installed DIMM slots up to the processor-supported maximum. The C610 chipset and 24 total slots allow up to 3TB with larger modules, yet the fitted CPUs cap usable speed at 2400MT/s. This capacity handles moderate virtualisation clusters and in-memory databases comfortably. Workloads that demand terabyte-scale memory or higher memory bandwidth will exceed the practical headroom of this configuration.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 64 GB DDR4 configuration or add more modules later?

The server ships with 64 GB DDR4 across 24 DIMM slots and the installed amount already reaches the listed maximum capacity of 64 GB, so no further expansion is possible without removing existing modules.

What does the 3.4 GHz Xeon E5-2643 v3 clock speed mean for actual workloads?

Two six-core Xeon E5-2643 v3 processors run at 3.4 GHz base frequency, providing 12 physical cores and 24 threads for compute-intensive tasks such as virtualization or database processing.

How does the B140i SATA RAID controller limit drive performance?

The B140i Software RAID supports only SATA drives and RAID 0/1/5/10, capping throughput to the 6 Gbps SATA interface and preventing use of SAS or NVME devices on this controller.
