1 Product Comparison1.1 Overview of PowerEdge R910 BenefitsThe Dell™ PowerEdge™ R910 provides performance and reliability in a scalable 4U, four-socket serverallowing large workload consolidation or max virtualization machine density.With Intel® Advanced RAS (Reliability, Availability, Serviceability) Technology, internal dual SDmodules for hypervisor redundancy, including design and component quality paired with DellLifecycle Controller, technicians avoid having to load diagnostics from other media. Dell built-inreliability saves valuable time and minimizes downtime for mission-critical workloads.Purpose Built for ReliabilityThe PowerEdge R910 is built for reliability through factory integration and validation. The Dell ―one-touch‖ process is designed to ensure one person is responsible for the entire server build, resulting ingreater quality control. Every fully configured Dell server is tested (and re-tested) before it leavesthe factory providing customers a fully configured and tested ready-to-deploy server.Internal Dual SD module provides failover at the hypervisor; this feature was designed based oncustomer reliability feedback. Dell listened and delivered.With Intel Advanced RAS Technology features never before seen in an industry-standard server, thePowerEdge R910 can automatically monitor, report, and recover from hardware errors to maintaindata integrity and keep mission-critical services online.Efficient InfrastructurePerformance resources, power efficiency, I/O, and memory scalability are essential to maximizingworkload in the data center.The PowerEdge R910 delivers the highest performing Xeon 7500 Series processors, up to 1TB of DDR3memory, and 2 x 10Gb Optional LOM with 10 PCIe slots to help consolidate inefficient workloads.Energy-efficient system design built with Energy Smart technologies includes power managementfeatures enabling power capping, power inventory, and power budgeting within your specificenvironment. Logical component layout of the internal components aids with airflow direction,helping to keep the server cool.Intelligent Platforms, Connected FoundationsThe PowerEdge R910 follows the 11th Generation PowerEdge behavioral specifications with the samesystem design commonality and usability true to the entire portfolio. All 11th Generation servers aredesigned to make the user experience easier while saving time and money.Dell system management solutions focus on simplicity, efficiency, cost containment and reduction,and an adherence to open standards. Our systems management solutions are complemented by,connected to, and integrated with 3rd-party offerings, thereby delivering comprehensive solutionsacross the complete solutions stack.The Lifecycle Controller is a chip that is integrated on the server. It helps to simplify administratortasks by performing a complete set of provisioning functions such as system deployment, systemupdates, hardware configuration, and diagnostics in a pre-OS environment—all from a single,intuitive interface called the Unified Server Configurator (USC).The PowerEdge R910 is easy to deploy, better to manage and maintain. Designed to save customerstime and money to focus on what matters most, their people and business.
