Dell PowerEdge R760xd2 — Full Technical Specifications

The R760xd2 is the dense-storage member of the R760 family: front, middle and rear cages, so that one chassis holds as many large-format drives as the rack height allows. Backup targets, media libraries, object stores and Ceph nodes are what it gets bought for — jobs where capacity per cabinet is the binding constraint and per-drive throughput is not.

It is offered new to order, and increasingly refurbished as the first of these machines rotate out of service.

Full Specifications

Read this one from the storage rows outward. Front, middle and rear bay counts describe a chassis that has to be ordered whole — a mid-plane cage is not something fitted afterwards — and the total-capacity line is the figure that decides whether one of these replaces two of something else. The weight row is no footnote on a machine like this: fully populated, it is heavier than the rails and the floor of an older comms room may expect, and that is cheaper to check before the order than on delivery day. The controller row governs how long a rebuild takes on a full array, which is a different question from how much the array holds.
