| Processor (CPU) |
Supports up to 2 × 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors — each CPU up to 28 cores, so up to ~56 cores in dual-CPU configuration.
|
| Memory (RAM / Persistent Memory) |
- 24 DDR4 DIMM slots (12 per CPU) supporting ECC RDIMM or LRDIMM, at speeds up to 2933 MT/s.
- Maximum RAM: up to 3 TB (with LRDIMM) under standard configs.
- Supports advanced memory options: up to 12 Intel® Optane™ DC Persistent Memory (PMem) modules — giving up to 6.14 TB of persistent memory (or even ~7.68 TB with certain memory type combos) — beneficial for workloads requiring large memory footprint or persistence.
|
| Storage / Drive Bays |
Flexible storage layout:
- Up to 10 × 2.5″ drives (SAS/SATA SSD/HDD or NVMe SSD) in front bay — up to 8 NVMe SSDs supported for high-performance storage.
- Alternatively, you can use 4 × 3.5″ drives (for high-capacity HDD storage) depending on chassis/drive-bay configuration.
- Rear drive support: up to 2 × 2.5″ HDD/SSD or NVMe drives (optional, depending on configuration).
|
| Storage Controllers & RAID / Boot Options |
Supports a variety of built-in and optional controllers: e.g., PERC H330 / H730P / H740P / H750; non-RAID HBAs (HBA330, HBA350i); software RAID (S140).
Boot-optimized options: e.g. dual M.2 SSDs via “BOSS” subsystem (for OS / boot drives) — useful to save main drive bays for data.
|
| Expansion / I/O / Accelerators & Networking |
- Up to 3 × PCIe Gen3 (x16) expansion slots for network cards, storage controllers, or accelerator cards.
- Accelerator support: depending on configuration, can support single-width GPUs or FPGA cards — useful for workloads like AI/ML, compute-heavy tasks, or virtualization acceleration.
- Networking (LOM) options: embedded + optional NICs — e.g., 1 GbE, 10 GbE or even 25 GbE depending on the network card chosen.
|
| Management & Security |
Integrated remote management via iDRAC9 + Lifecycle Controller — allows remote management, firmware updates, monitoring, maintenance, etc.
Built-in security features: support for TPM, Secure Boot, signed firmware, System Lockdown / System Erase, and other capabilities to ensure data center-grade security and compliance.
|
| Form Factor & Dimensions |
1U rack-mount chassis (compact, space-efficient).
Typical depth suitable for standard racks; due to 1U height and flexible configuration, it's suited for data centers where rack density matters |
