More than 1,000 ways to get results fast
Microbes, earthquakes, and customers don’t wait. Neither should you. Speed up your most resource‑intensive workloads by mixing and matching compute, storage and graphics processing unit (GPU) sleds in the same 4U rack chassis.
Do more in the same footprint without compromising performance or capacity. Mixing and matching sleds also allows you to standardize on infrastructure architecture, which can help drive down the total cost of ownership.
Mix workloads in the same chassis
The Dell™ PowerEdge™ C8000 chassis can easily handle multiple workloads in the same chassis, or scaled across racks to help reduce response times while easing serviceability.
The PowerEdge C8000 series packs up to eight single‑wide sleds, four double‑wide sleds, or a variety of combinations to create the ideal mix to meet your needs.
Load the chassis with three types of interchangeable, hot‑pluggable sleds:
- C8220 — Single-wide compute sled
- C8220X — Double-wide compute/GPU sled
- C8000XD — Double-wide storage sled
Pack more compute power in less space while saving energy
Get the cores, memory and I/O expansion you need for peak workload performance, while keeping a dense footprint. The Intel® Xeon® processor E5 product family can boost server performance by up to 80% over previous‑generation processors, accelerate data availability to the processing cores and reduce latency by up to 30%, while delivering up to 70% more performance per watt.
NVIDIA® Tesla™ GPUs can speed high-performance computing (HPC) applications by up to 10x, with up to 665 GFLOPS of double‑precision performance and 1.33 TFLOPS of single‑precision performance.
Storage options, such as 2.5” or 3.5” SAS/SATA or 2.5” SSDs can boost storage density up to 192TB per chassis.
Heatsink & Fans
The C8000 Rack Enclosure comes with two rows of three fans for a total of 6 x 120 mm non-redundant, hot-pluggable, high-efficiency fans with PWM control.
Node/Blade Options:
You have 4 Sled options that can be mixed and matched for whatever configuration you might need. Below is a short breakdown of each sled/blade.

Power & Dimensions
Powering the Rack Enclosure
The C8000 has two Power Options. One option is the Power Sleds which can be installed in Bays 5 or 6. This type of power is considered Internal Power. The other option is to plug the power source into the back of the C8000 Chassis. This is referred to as the External Power Source with the power coming from the Cabinet. The Power Sled also has internal fans to keep the PSU cool. If the Internal Fans in the Power Sled fail you must replace the entire Power Sled.
Remember that the Internal Power Source Sleds can only be installed in Bay 5 and Bay 6 and is not mandatory since you can have the power from the Cabinet as another option.
