โ“ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

๐Ÿ”น What is the performance difference between the R420 and the previous generation R610?
The PowerEdge R420 represents a significant leap over the R610. The Intel Xeon E5-2440 Sandy Bridge processors offer an improved microarchitectural design with up to 40% additional performance per core compared to the R610's Xeon 5500 Nehalem. The R420 also benefits from PCI Express 3.0 support, doubling I/O bandwidth, faster DDR3-1333/1600 memory, a next-generation H710 RAID controller with 512MB cache compared to the PERC 6/i, and optimized TDP for better energy efficiency. Ideal configuration for dense virtualization and demanding SQL Server databases.
๐Ÿ”น How many virtual machines can I host on this dual-processor server?
With 12 physical cores, 24 logical threads, and 32 GB of RAM, this Dell PowerEdge R420 can comfortably host between 15 and 30 virtual machines depending on their resource needs. For lightweight Linux VMs (web servers, PHP/Python applications), count up to 30 instances. For Windows Server VMs with SQL Server or resource-intensive business applications, aim for 8-15 VMs with an allocation of 2-4 GB of RAM each. The dual-processor Xeon E5-2440 configuration excels particularly with VMware vSphere ESXi 6.x/7.x, Microsoft Hyper-V Server, Proxmox VE, or Citrix XenServer for datacenter server consolidation.
๐Ÿ”น What types of hard drives can I install with the PERC H710 controller?
The Dell PERC H710 RAID controller supports a wide range of professional disks: 10K or 15K RPM enterprise SAS 6Gb/s disks for maximum IOPS performance, nearline SATA 6Gb/s disks for optimal storage capacity up to 4TB per disk, SATA SSDs for read/write acceleration, and SAS SSDs for extreme performance in transactional databases. The H710 manages RAID configurations 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 with global or dedicated hot-spare support. Recommended configuration: RAID 5 or RAID 6 for data protection with 4-6 disks, or RAID 10 for critical I/O performance in high-load SQL Server applications.
๐Ÿ”น Does the server support memory expansion and what is the maximum configuration?
The PowerEdge R420 has 12 DIMM slots allowing for an expansion up to a maximum of 384 GB of DDR3 ECC Registered RAM. The current configuration of 32 GB leaves free slots for future upgrades. For optimal performance, use identical modules per memory bank and favor a balanced configuration between the two processors (6 slots per CPU). Supports DDR3-1333 MHz with E5-2440 processors, scalable to DDR3-1600 MHz with Ivy Bridge generation V2 processors. Supported module capacities: 2GB, 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB RDIMM DDR3 to adapt memory investment according to the growth needs of virtualization or databases.
๐Ÿ”น What is the power consumption of this dual-processor server?
The Dell PowerEdge R420 with two Xeon E5-2440 (95W TDP each) has an average consumption between 200W and 350W depending on system workload, number of installed drives, and active RAID configuration. In idle state, consumption drops to around 150-180W thanks to Intel SpeedStep and C-States energy-saving technologies. Under maximum load CPU+drives+RAID, peak can reach 400W. Dell power supplies are available in 350W, 550W platinum efficiency, or 550W silver with auto-ranging 100-240V. Energy efficiency is superior to the previous R610 generation for optimized datacenter operating costs.
๐Ÿ”น Does the Dell iDRAC7 allow complete remote management of the server?
The PowerEdge R420 integrates Dell iDRAC7 (Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller version 7) offering complete out-of-band management: modern HTML5 web interface accessible via dedicated LAN network, KVM over IP console for virtual keyboard, video, and mouse access, remote media mounting of ISO/IMG for OS installations without physical relocation, real-time hardware monitoring of CPU temperatures, fans, power supplies, SNMP email alerts for critical events, and firmware lifecycle management with remote updates. iDRAC7 Express version included by default, upgradable to iDRAC7 Enterprise for advanced dedicated console vFlash features and virtual replication. An essential tool for multi-site datacenter server administration.
