About the Dell PowerEdge R960 (Xeon 6 Refresh)

The Dell PowerEdge R960 (Xeon 6 Refresh) delivers exceptional compute density with quad-socket architecture supporting up to 4 x Intel Xeon 6 processors, 64 DIMM slots for DDR5 memory expansion, and a compact 3U form factor that maximizes data center footprint efficiency. This enterprise-grade server (part number PER960XE6) is engineered for organizations requiring substantial processing headroom, memory bandwidth, and I/O scalability in a single chassis.

Built on Dell's PowerEdge platform, the R960 combines the latest Intel Xeon 6 (Refresh) silicon with PCIe Gen 5 connectivity, enabling modern workloads from virtualization and high-performance databases to AI inference and analytics. The system features redundant hot-plug power supplies rated up to 2800W with Platinum or Titanium efficiency, redundant cooling fans, and comprehensive security built on Silicon Root of Trust, Secure Boot, and TPM 2.0 protection. Network architects will appreciate support for 10GbE, 25GbE, and 100GbE OCP 3.0 adapters, while storage teams can select from BOSS-N1, PERC H755, or HBA355i controllers. Dell's iDRAC9 with Lifecycle Controller and Redfish-compliant management API simplifies deployment and monitoring across Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, and VMware vSphere environments. The ReadyRails sliding rail kit ensures straightforward rack integration.
