Dual Xeon Platinum 8160 2U server

This 2U rackmount system ships with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 24 cores. It includes 128 GB of DDR4-2666 ECC registered memory across eight 16 GB modules. A MegaRAID 9361-8i controller with 1 GB cache and battery backs the twelve 3.5-inch hot-swap drive bays. Dual 1000 W titanium power supplies and IPMI 2.0 complete the platform.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing dense 3.5-inch

The twelve-bay chassis and dual 10 GbE ports fit hyper-converged or storage-heavy clusters that rely on large-capacity hard drives. Buyers who need NVMe-optimised bays, GPU compute slots, or a smaller 1U footprint should look at other configurations. The fixed dual-CPU layout also limits single-socket licensing flexibility.

Twelve 3.5-inch hot-swap bays define capacity

The chassis provides exactly twelve front-accessible trays for SAS or SATA drives, with no drives included. This bay count sets the raw storage ceiling and drives the choice of RAID levels supported by the 9361-8i controller.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the 2U chassis get when both Xeon Platinum 8160 CPUs run at 2.1GHz all day?

Dual 1000 W titanium PSUs and redundant hot-swap fans keep the 2U system within spec under full 205 W per CPU load; actual acoustic and thermal output depend on the drives and add-in cards you install.

Which drives, rails and cabling must I already own before the 12-bay server becomes operational?

You need up to twelve 3.5" SAS or SATA drives, rack-mount rails and a front bezel — none are included — plus a Cat5e or better patch cord for the dedicated IPMI 2.0 port and copper for the four 10GBase-T links.

Will my existing PCIe 3.0 x8 RAID cards and SAS expanders work in the expansion slots alongside the installed 9361-8i?

Yes — the chassis provides two full-height PCIe 3.0 x16 slots, four full-height x8 slots and one low-profile x8 slot, all 10.5" long, so legacy x8 controllers fit without modification.
