            New technologies         Detailed descriptions

            Intel Xeon processor     This new family of Intel processors has embedded PCIe lanes for improved I/O
            E5-2600 product family   performance. See the Processor section for details.

            Intel C600 series chipset  The Intel Platform Controller Hub (PCH) chip is implemented on the R620 server.
                                     Certain models of the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family support
            1600MT/s DDR3            1600MT/s memory. The R620 supports two DIMMs per channel at 1600MT/s with
            memory
                                     these processors. See the Memory section for details.
                                     This new memory option, load reduced DIMM (LRDIMM), is designed with a buffer
                                     chip (or chips) to replace the register to help minimize loading. LRDIMMs can
            LRDIMM
                                     increase overall server system memory capacity and speed. See the Memory
                                     section for more information.

                                     Dell’s Select Network Adapter options allow you to customize your LAN port
            Flexible LOM             combinations from your choice of controller vendors. See the Networking and
                                     PCIe section for details.
            Next generation PERC     The R620 supports the new PERC controller cards with improved functionality and
            options                  faster performance. See the Storage section for details.

                                     This new software RAID solution supports RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10; supports maximum
            PERC S110 software       of four hot-plug SATA hard drives or SATA solid-state drives. See the Storage
            RAID Solution
                                     section for details.
                                     Dell Express Flash PCIe solid-state drives provide fast performance without
            Express Flash drives     requiring processor resources or capturing DRAM. The R620 supports up to two
                                     Express Flash drives. See the Storage section for details.
                                     The new embedded system management solution for Dell servers features
            iDRAC7 with Lifecycle    hardware and firmware inventory and alerting, in-depth memory alerting, faster
            Controller               performance, a dedicated gigabit port and many more features. See the Dell
                                     OpenManage systems management section for details.
                                     The R620 supports internal graphics processing units (GPUs) for extreme
            Internal GPU support
                                     computing power to solve HPC needs. See the Processor section for details.
           DC power supply           A new 1100W DC power supply option is available for the R620.

            Advanced power           The R620 supports advanced power monitoring and power capping tools that can
            management               help manage power consumption.
                                     Dell has tested and validated an integrated data center solution that enables you
            Fresh Air cooling        to operate at higher temperatures or even chiller-less. See the Power, thermal, and
                                     acoustics section for details.
                                     The internal dual SD module enables Dell's unique Failsafe Virtualization
                                     architecture, ensuring uptime by providing failover capability for embedded
            Failsafe hypervisors                               ®        ®
                                     hypervisors, such as VMware  vSphere  ESXi™. See the Supported virtualization
