Storage-Dense 4U Server

The Supermicro SYS-6048R-E1CR36N is a 4U rackmount system built for capacity-focused deployments. It ships with dual Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors, 128GB of DDR4 ECC memory and a MegaRAID 9361-8i controller. Thirty-six hot-swap 3.5-inch drive bays provide massive raw storage potential for archiving or backup workloads.

Ideal for Cold-Data Archives

This platform suits teams that prioritise drive count and sequential throughput over low-latency compute. The 14-core CPUs and quad 10GBase-T ports feed the RAID array steadily. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, more than eight internal RAID ports or a smaller rack footprint should evaluate other platforms.

Eight-Port Hardware RAID Decides Fit

The installed 9361-8i controller manages eight SAS/SATA lanes with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Expanding past eight drives requires additional HBAs or a different controller card. If the storage design relies on a single card for all 36 bays, this server will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the dual Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors and 128GB DDR4 are detected after first boot?

Enter the BIOS or IPMI 2.0 web interface; both will show two 14-core CPUs at 2.4 GHz and eight 16 GB DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC modules totalling 128 GB.

Which drive trays and rails ship with the SYS-6048R-E1CR36N and what must I source separately?

Thirty-six 3.5" SAS/SATA hot-plug trays are included; front bezel and rack-mount rails are not included and must be purchased separately.

Which RAID controller variant fits the 36-bay layout — the onboard 3108 or the installed 9361-8i?

The system ships with an LSI MegaRAID 9361-8i 8-port SAS 12 Gb/s PCIe controller with 1 GB cache and battery; the onboard 3108 is not used in this configuration.
