Dell PowerEdge Server Equipment - Refurbished, Used, New

PowerEdge parts on this page

Which PowerEdge part do I need?

Identify the server generation first: the R610 and R710 are 11th generation, the R620 and R720 are 12th, the R630 and R730 are 13th, and the R640 and R740 are 14th. Power supplies, rail kits and motherboards do not carry across generations, and a 1U R-series server and its 2U sibling often take different rails and supplies. For a power supply, match the wattage already installed so the pair shares load evenly, and move up in wattage only if you are adding GPUs or drives. For a chassis I/O module, match the chassis: FN modules fit the FX2, the MXL fits the M1000e, and the 48YWN fits the VRTX. For adapters, confirm you have a low-profile or full-height slot, or a mezzanine slot in a blade. Rails, caddies and bezels are sold separately, so send us the service tag and we will confirm fit.

Frequently asked questions

Can I mix a 750W and an 1100W supply in the same server?
Dell servers expect matched supplies for redundancy. Mismatched supplies may run, but the server will warn and the lower-rated unit sets the usable budget, so buy a matched pair.

Will an FN410s module work in an M1000e?
No. FN410 and FN2210 modules are built for the FX2 chassis. The M1000e takes MXL and other M-series blade switches, and the VRTX takes its own I/O modules.

Do the 25G adapters work at 10G?
Yes. The Broadcom 57414 negotiates at 10G or 25G depending on the optic or DAC and the switch port it connects to.
