About the H3C UniServer R2960 G6 High-Density Storage Server
High-density storage workloads demand a server that scales capacity without consuming floor space—the H3C UniServer R2960 G6 delivers exactly that through up to 60 x 3.5-inch LFF drive bays in a compact 2U form factor. Built on Intel Xeon Scalable 4th Gen (Sapphire Rapids) processors with dual-socket support, this platform combines dense storage with modern compute performance. The R2960 G6 features DDR5 memory across up to 32 DIMM slots, PCIe Gen 5 connectivity, and flexible drive interfaces—SAS, SATA, and NVMe—allowing storage architects to tailor configurations for mixed workload demands. Hardware RAID functionality via H3C-integrated controllers supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 topologies, protecting data while optimizing I/O throughput.
Reliability and operational efficiency are engineered throughout: redundant, hot-swap power supplies rated 80 PLUS Platinum eliminate single points of failure, while tool-less drive bay access and hot-swap drives, power supplies, and fans minimize maintenance windows. Network connectivity includes onboard dual-port GbE with OCP 3.0 slot expansion to 10GbE or 25GbE. H3C Device Manager (HDM) out-of-band BMC, IPMI 2.0, and Redfish API provide comprehensive remote management. Security is enforced at the silicon level with Secure Boot, TPM 2.0, and Root of Trust architecture. Support for Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, and VMware ESXi ensures broad OS compatibility. For IT procurement teams evaluating high-capacity storage infrastructure, the R2960 G6 (part number R2960 G6) represents a proven solution from H3C for enterprise data centers.
Typical Deployment Scenarios
- Large-scale backup and archival systems requiring 60+ bay capacity in minimal rack units
- Virtualization platforms leveraging ESXi with dense local or network-attached storage
- Database acceleration and OLAP analytics using DDR5 and NVMe tiering
- Mixed-protocol storage environments combining SAS legacy arrays with NVMe performance tiers
- Redundant storage clusters using H3C hardware RAID for fault tolerance and data protection

Frequently Asked Questions about H3C UniServer R2960 G6 High-Density Storage Server
Can you supply the H3C UniServer R2960 G6 High-Density Storage Server configured to my BOM?
Yes. Submit your CTO BOM (CPU SKU, memory layout, drives, NIC, GPU, OS preload) in the RFQ and we return a configured-to-order quote with realistic lead time. Standard CTO turn is 4-6 weeks vendor-side.
Do you offer Dell ProSupport / HPE Foundation Care alongside the hardware?
Yes — we attach the matching support contract during quoting. Available tiers: ProSupport / ProSupport Plus / Mission Critical (Dell), Foundation Care / Proactive Care 24x7 (HPE), Premier (Lenovo). Recommend 3y minimum for production.
Is rack installation available in Dubai / GCC?
Yes for Dubai (same-week scheduling) and on quotation for the broader GCC via certified partners. Includes rack-and-stack, cable management, OS install, and post-install verification.
Why buy from Omnixon Global instead of going direct to the OEM?
Omnixon Global is a single supplier across every major brand — genuine channel-sourced hardware, full manufacturer support, pre-sales engineering and BOM validation. Submit a Request for Quote (RFQ) and our team handles sourcing and configuration end-to-end.
