Dell PowerEdge R710 Server Xeon E5504 2.0GHz 4GB RAM 2U Rack No HDD DVD Wty
Dell PowerEdge R710 — Xeon E5504 2.0GHz 4GB RAM 2U Rack Server
The Dell PowerEdge R710 is a proven 2U rack server built on Intel's Xeon 5500 platform. This configuration features a single Xeon E5504 processor at 2.0GHz with 4GB DDR3 RAM — a cost-effective entry point into the R710 platform for lab environments, application hosting, and lightweight virtualisation. Please note: no hard drives are included, and server rails and HDD caddies are not included. Backed by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty.
Key Benefits
- Proven Xeon 5500 platform: Intel Xeon E5504 with four cores delivers reliable performance for single-application and lab workloads.
- Expandable architecture: RAM slots support up to 192GB DDR3, and drive bays accept LFF or SFF drives — straightforward future upgrade path.
- 2U rack form factor: Standard 2U footprint fits any 19-inch rack with room for cable management.
- iDRAC6 Express (base): Out-of-band management for remote power control, console access, and system event log review.
- Dual power supply capable: PSU redundancy slot available for high-availability configurations (second PSU sold separately).
- Dell enterprise reliability: PowerEdge R710 is one of Dell's most widely deployed server platforms with extensive community documentation.
Performance in Use
The R710 E5504 configuration suits lab testing, development servers, and single-application hosting where a modest processor and small RAM baseline is sufficient. The R710 chassis itself is capable of significant expansion — the Xeon E5504 can be swapped for higher-core-count E5520/E5650 family processors, and RAM can be upgraded incrementally from 4GB to 96GB or beyond. This makes the base configuration an affordable entry point into the R710 platform for budget-conscious buyers who plan to expand over time.
For virtualisation workloads, even the base E5504 configuration supports VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, and Proxmox for running a handful of lightweight VMs. Adding more RAM is the most cost-effective first upgrade for virtualisation performance. Note that server rails and HDD caddies must be sourced separately — Dell PowerEdge R710 3.5" or 2.5" caddies are widely available from third-party suppliers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are server rails included?
No — server rails are not included with this listing. Dell PowerEdge R710 compatible rails are available from third-party suppliers.
Are HDD caddies included?
No — HDD drive caddies are not included. Dell R710 caddies (2.5" or 3.5" depending on backplane) must be sourced separately.
Can the CPU be upgraded?
Yes — the R710 supports dual LGA1366 sockets. The E5504 can be replaced with any Xeon 5500 or 5600 series processor. A second CPU can also be added.
How much RAM can it support?
The R710 supports up to 192GB DDR3 ECC RAM across 18 DIMM slots. Current configuration is 4GB — significant headroom for upgrades.
What is the shipping cost?
Shipping costs apply based on size and destination — rates are calculated at checkout.
