    This is one of the supported Blade servers, each Modular Enclosure is a separate CTO you must configure.

    Supported M1000e and VRTX Architecture

    When installed into the Modular Enclosure. The M520 has a few different supported items. When you configure the M520 for the VRTX, the Blade Server will not support SATA drives and has only 1 Mezzanine Ethernet Pass-through option.


    Achieve business continuity

    Ensure maximum uptime with the fully redundant M-series power, cooling, and networking infrastructure, designed to provide the stability and resiliency our customers demand for Enterprise-class deployments. The M520’s design matches Dell’s commitment to reliability, with features such as multiple hardware RAID choices and our unique failsafe virtualization technology, which utilizes redundant SD media to provide failover capabilities for embedded hypervisors.


    Improve operational efficiency

    Help manage your servers using the Dell OpenManage portfolio, including Dell’s exclusive integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) with Lifecycle Controller. iDRAC, an embedded systems management feature, allows you to manage Dell servers in physical, virtual, local and remote environments, either in-band or out-ofband, with or without a systems management software agent. OpenManage also integrates and connects to leading third-party systems management solutions you may already use, allowing you to maintain a single point of control and capitalize on your existing investment. OpenManage simplifies the lifecycle of deploying, updating, monitoring, and maintaining your Dell PowerEdge servers.


    PowerEdge M-series blade server line

    Implement the right combination of features and performance scalability with the PowerEdge M-series blade servers, which can handle tough workloads in any size data centers. In addition to the world-class management features provided in all PowerEdge servers, the M520 also takes advantage of the capabilities of the M1000e Chassis Management Controller (CMC). The CMC allows M-series blades to be managed individually or as groups, in single or multiple chassis, and within a data center or in multiple geographically dispersed locations around the globe without requiring a single agent or additional hardware. PowerEdge M-series blade servers use the redundant power, cooling, and networking infrastructure provided by the Dell M1000e blade enclosure, which is exceptionally easy to deploy and manage, and maximizes power and cooling efficiency.

    I/O Module Mezzanine Cards

    The blade supports two mezzanine cards:

    • Mezzanine card slot C supports Fabric C. This card must match the fabric type of I/O modules installed in I/O module bays C1 and C2 of the M1000e.
    • Mezzanine card slot B supports Fabric B. This card must match the fabric type of I/O modules installed in I/O module bays B1 and B2 of the M1000e.

    Storage Controllers

    The newest line of PowerEdge RAID Controllers (PERCs) offers high I/O performance for a variety of uses, including database applications and streaming digital media environments. The internal RAID controllers have a dedicated connection to the system board.


    PERC H710P

    The PERC H710P is an eight-port, internal, 6Gbps PCIe RAID controller (mini form factor) with 1GB DDR3 non-volatile (NV) cache.


    PERC H710

    The PERC H710 is an eight-port, internal, 6Gbps PCIe RAID controller (mini form factor) with 512MB DDR3 NV cache.
