FAQs

Q: How many processors can the DL560 Gen8 support?
A: The DL560 Gen8 supports 2 to 4 Intel Xeon E5-4600 v1 or E5-4600 v2 series processors in a quad-socket configuration. Performance scales with the number of processors installed, and memory slots are divided equally among installed CPUs.

Q: What is the maximum memory capacity?
A: The server supports up to 1.5TB of DDR3 memory across 48 DIMM slots using 32GB LRDIMM or RDIMM modules. Memory speeds can reach up to 1866MHz with LRDIMMs, depending on processor model and configuration. RDIMM and LRDIMM types cannot be mixed.

Q: What storage configurations are available?
A: The DL560 Gen8 features 5x 2.5-inch SFF hot-plug drive bays supporting SAS and SATA drives. The embedded Smart Array P420i controller provides hardware RAID with optional Flash Backed Write Cache up to 2GB for enhanced performance.

Q: Can I add 10Gb networking to this server?
A: Yes, the DL560 Gen8 ships standard with 4x 1GbE ports via the 331FLR FlexibleLOM adapter. You can add 10Gb connectivity with the optional 530FLR-SFP+ 2-port 10GbE adapter using the FlexibleLOM slot or PCIe expansion slots.

Q: What applications is the DL560 Gen8 best suited for?
A: The DL560 Gen8 excels in virtualization platforms, database servers, business processing, and general four-processor data-intensive applications where density optimization and high memory capacity are paramount.
