Ideal for:
- Database
- Virtualization
A quarter-width, two-socket FX architecture server, the Dell PowerEdge FC430 offers the ultimate in shared infrastructure density with the option for smaller, physically discrete servers.
The FC430 offers Choices:
- Two 18-core Intel® Xeon® E5-2600 v4 processors, or a single socket Intel Xeon E5-1600 v3 alternative
- Two 1.8-inch drives or one 1.8-inch drive with a front-access mezzanine port Mellanox® InfiniBand® connection.
All configurations have up to 8 DIMMs of memory and a dual port 10Gb LOM for networking. Each FC430 has access to one PCIe 3.0 expansion slot.
Implement higher reliability
One of the FC430’s distinguishing features is its quarter-width size. It can run multiple applications as a virtualized environment, or house the operations of different clients as a dedicated host. Either way, it offers the benefit of higher reliability through physical separation; one server failing does not disrupt the operation of virtual machines or clients running on other servers.
