Dell PowerEdge R715 2U 2-Socket AMD Opteron Rack Server Refurbished: This is a 2U, 2-socket rack server from Dell's 11th-generation PowerEdge family, built on the AMD Opteron 6000-series platform (Socket G34). MPN: PowerEdge R715. This IS an enterprise-class rack server intended for workload consolidation, virtualization, and mid-tier database hosting. This IS NOT an Intel Xeon-based server, nor a tower or blade form factor; the R715 platform is exclusively AMD Opteron. Condition: Refurbished.
Engineering Context
The R715 chassis provides 16 DDR3 DIMM slots (8 per CPU socket) and supports up to 256 GB of registered ECC memory using 16 GB modules. Storage is delivered through up to six 2.5-inch hot-plug SAS/SATA bays, managed by the Dell PERC H700 RAID controller with 1 GB cache. Power redundancy is provided by two hot-swap PSUs and five redundant cooling fans. Out-of-band management is handled by iDRAC6 Express or Enterprise. Chassis depth is approximately 772 mm with a typical operating weight near 21 kg.
Deployment & Use Cases
Server virtualization with VMware ESXi 5.x/6.x or Microsoft Hyper-V 2012, mid-tier SQL Server and MySQL database hosts, branch-office file and print servers, lab and test infrastructure, education and research deployments requiring AMD Opteron compatibility, and legacy ERP application back-ends. Suitable as a secondary or development node where modern Intel platforms are not mandated.
