Dell PowerEdge R820

A high-performance four-socket, 2U rack server, the Dell PowerEdge R820 is designed for dense virtualization and scalable database applications.

Designed to excel at running a wide range of applications and virtualization environments for both midsized and large enterprises, the PowerEdge R820 rack server is a compute-intensive performance platform with highly scalable memory (up to 3TB) and impressive I/O capabilities to match. With the Intel® Xeon® processor E5-4600 and E5-4600 v2 product families, and the ability to support dual RAID controllers, the R820 can readily handle demanding, mission-critical workloads, like enterprise resource planning, data warehousing, e-commerce, Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), databases and data node high-performance computing (HPC).

Manage data overload

Keep pace with the data explosion of the virtual age with flexible and powerful I/O and storage capabilities. With up to 16 internal hard drives and integrated PCI Express $ ^{®} $ (PCIe) 3.0-enabled expansion slots, the R820 increases your capacity and offers optional hot-plug, front-access PCIe SSDs (up to four) to enable performance-enhancing, in-box storage tiering. And with Dell Select Network Adapters, our flexible embedded NIC technology, you can choose the right network fabric to match your needs, without using up a valuable PCIe slot.

Virtualize more

Maximize your data center's application capacity by expanding your virtual environment using the R820's large memory footprint, I/O options, flexible fabric choices and up to 32 cores in a four-processor configuration. Choose an industry-leading hypervisor and take advantage of our system management capability to manage both physical and virtual assets. The R820 can also help maximize your virtual machines' uptime using redundant failsafe hypervisors on its internal dual SD module.

Enterprise-wide systems management

PowerEdge embedded management technology, Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller 7 (iDRAC7) with Lifecycle Controller, helps IT administrators manage Dell servers in physical, virtual, local and remote environments — agent-free or in-band with a systems management software agent installed. iDRAC7 Enterprise features include a multi-administrator virtual console, virtual media and remote file share that enable IT admins to operate servers "as if they were there," ensuring secure access to servers from anywhere in the world.

OpenManage Essentials, a comprehensive monitoring and management console available as a no-charge software download, simplifies and automates basic hardware management tasks while Dell SupportAssist helps you maintain a healthy and productive environment.
