Entry rack server for SMB and edge sites

The Dell PowerEdge R260 is a 1U rack server built for small-business, near-edge and remote-office workloads. It ships without a processor or memory, letting you choose one Intel Xeon E-2400 or Pentium G7400 series CPU and up to 128 GB of DDR5 ECC UDIMMs across four slots.

Single-socket C262 platform with DDR5-only memory

The Intel C262 chipset supports exactly one processor and limits memory to unregistered ECC DDR5 DIMMs at up to 4400 MT/s. No other DDR generation fits, and the four slots cap total capacity at 128 GB, so larger memory footprints need a different platform.

Front-bay storage up to 46.08 TB in 2.5-inch

You can populate the front bays with up to six 2.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives for 46.08 TB, or two 3.5-inch cabled SAS or SATA drives for 32 TB. Mixed drive types or larger arrays are not supported in this chassis.

What does the 128GB maximum memory mean for daily workloads?

Four DDR5 slots accept unregistered ECC modules up to 4400 MT/s, giving ample headroom for virtualisation, databases and near-edge applications.

Which storage interfaces does the chassis support and what do they limit?

Both SAS and SATA are supported on the front bays; the backplane caps total capacity at 32TB for 3.5-inch or 46.08TB for 2.5-inch configurations.
