    1100W power supply. A hot-plug redundant 750W option is available for the 8- and 12-HDD configurations. Power is soft-switched, allowing power cycling using a switch on the front of the system enclosure or using software control (through server management functions). The power system is compatible with industry standards, such as ACPI and Server 2000.
  • Page 37: Thermal

    Optimized thermal management makes PowerEdge R510 cool and quiet. Benefiting from a smart cooling thermal control algorithm, the PowerEdge R510 can keep both high performance and good acoustics across a wide range of ambient temperatures (10 °C – 35 °C). In addition, the PowerEdge R510 provides cooling efficiency that saves energy.

  • Page 42: Processors

    Dell 6 Processors R510 can operate in either single-processor or dual-processor mode. However, since the memory controller is embedded in the processor, when only one processor is installed in the system, it supports 4 DIMMs, with minimum memory of 1GB and maximum memory of 64GB (based on the 16GB module). When two processors are installed in the system, it supports 8 DIMMs, min.
  • Page 43: Memory

    Intel has added sparing back with Xeon processor 5600 series. In sparing mode, you must have identical memory in Channel_0, Channel_1 and Channel_2. For the R510, memories are installed in A1, A2 and A3 to enable the sparing mode. With sparing mode is enabled, usable memory capacity is 2/3 of the physical memory installed.
