Four-socket Xeon platform

The Supermicro SYS-8048B-TRFT is a 4U rack server built around four Intel Xeon E7-4850 v4 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores. It ships with 768 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory across 96 DIMM slots. Twenty-four front-accessible 3.5-inch hot-swap bays accept SAS or SATA drives for high-capacity storage.

Upgrade from dual-socket or DDR3 systems

Moving from a two-socket server or an older DDR3 platform adds two additional CPUs and doubles the memory channel count. The jump is worth it when workloads such as in-memory databases, virtualization hosts or large-scale analytics need more cores and a larger memory footprint than a dual-socket chassis can provide.

Dense storage and 10 GbE in one chassis

The integrated LSI MegaRAID 9361-8i controller manages RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the 24 drive bays. Dual 10GBase-T ports on the Intel X540 adapter handle high-throughput networking. Four 1620 W platinum power supplies deliver redundant power. IPMI 2.0 with dedicated LAN enables remote KVM and virtual media. Front bezel and rack rails are not included.

Questions about this item

What rack depth is needed for the SYS-8048B-TRFT 4U server?

The chassis is a 4U CSE-848X design; allow a standard deep rack and verify clearance for the four 1620 W power supplies at the rear.

How are the four Xeon E7-4850 v4 processors and 768 GB DDR4 installed?

Each CPU seats in an LGA 2011 socket on the X10QBi motherboard; the 96 DIMM slots take registered ECC DDR4 2400 MHz modules in sets per processor.

When will the MegaRAID 9361-8i cache battery need replacement?

The controller includes a 1 GB cache with battery backup; plan to swap the battery module every few years to keep write-back caching protected.
