Through innovative hardware design, software commonality and continued focus on fewer system updates, Dell's 9th generation PowerEdge servers help reduce the complexity involved in managing data, whether you are a large enterprise or a small business. These servers are designed to a Dell-developed behavioral specification that defines consistent hardware layout and user interaction across all server models in this and future PowerEdge generations, including the PowerEdge 1900. The master system image features many of the same components as the PowerEdge 2900, utilizing updates to system drivers, firmware, operating systems and applications from one easy-to-copy template for simplified software management. Featuring the latest Intel Xeon processors, the 9th generation PowerEdge servers offer the power and performance you expect from Dell.The Dell PowerEdge 1900 server is designed to deliver exceptional performance in a tower chassis with next generation Quad-Core Intel Xeon processors, flly buffered dimm memory technology and hard drives. It also supports eight memory slots for 16GB of memory capacity for file/print, dedicated remote applications and branch office messaging workloads. And the TCP/IP offload engine functionality in the embedded Gigabit NIC helps further to improve CPU performance and utilization by moving the TCP/IP protocol processing to the NIC.The Dell PowerEdge 1900 server has growing enterprises in mind. Whether you need to start small and allow room for growth, or configure your server with the maximum configuration, the PowerEdge 1900 couples a sensible price, with enterprise class remote management, storage and services. The tower chassis features up to six SAS or SATA hard drives for up to 4.5TB of internal storage, several optical devices and tape products. What's more, the system features six I/O slots, and two dedicated daughter card sockets for RAID and remote management controllers. And because Dell Remote Access Card (DRAC) and PERC 5/i integrated controller utilize dedicated daughter card slots, all six I/O slots are available for expandability. You have the option of adding up to four dual embedded Gigabit Network Interface Cards (NICs) and two dual channel storage interface devices providing incredible growth potential.The Dell PowerEdge 1900 server is equipped with a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) that includes a complete set of tools that monitors server hardware, alerts you when server faults occur and enables basic remote operations. For environments with servers located in secure data centers or in sites with no IT staff, Dell offers an optional feature for PowerEdge servers, the Dell Remote Access Controller (DRAC). Operated through a Web-based graphic user interface, DRAC can enable remote access, monitoring, troubleshooting, repair and upgrades independent of the operating system status. Common software with the same family of PowerEdge 9th generation servers further helps simplify management. Plus, the Dell Behavioral Specification means one familiar platform for less complex deployment, management and serviceability as well as lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) over multiple generations of PowerEdge servers.
