R520-7079
The Dell PowerEdge R520 is a 2-socket, 2U
rack-mount server offering an excellent balance
of processing power, storage capacity, and
redundancy. The R520’s price per performance,
configuration flexibility, and headroom for growth
make it highly appealing for consolidation and
virtualization, web hosting, for use as a medium-
size mail server, or as a general-purpose server.
The R520 is optimized for running a wide range
of core applications, such as small-medium mail
server, web server, small-scale hosting, and database
server. Consistent worldwide support makes it highly
appealing to larger businesses and organizations
with distributed offices.

Manage and secure your data
Features that protect your business data and keep
the server running are essential. The extensive
storage capacity of the R520 can be protected
with both hardware RAID controllers and software
solutions to protect your data and ensure that it is
readily available. Built-in reliability, availability, and
serviceability (RAS) features such as hot-pluggable
hard drives and power supplies minimize the need
to disrupt production work to take a server offline
in the event of a component failure. Redundant,

The Dell OpenManage™ systems management
portfolio includes integrated Dell Remote Access
Controller (iDRAC) with Lifecycle Controller. This
embedded feature helps IT administrators manage
Dell servers in physical, virtual, local and remote
environments, operating in-band or out-of-band,
with or without a systems management software
agent. OpenManage also integrates and connects
to leading third-party systems management
solutions you may already own, so you can maintain
your single point of control and capitalize on your
existing investment. OpenManage simplifies the
lifecycle of deploying, updating, monitoring, and
maintaining your Dell PowerEdge servers.
