Dell PowerEdge 1950 1U Rack Server 2x Xeon X5460 3.16GHz 8-Core 4GB 3TB HDD
Dell PowerEdge 1950 — 1U Rack Server
The Dell PowerEdge 1950 is a space-efficient 1U rack server equipped with dual Intel Xeon X5460 3.16GHz quad-core processors (8 cores total), 4GB DDR2 RAM, and 3TB HDD. A proven enterprise platform in the smallest standard rack footprint — backed by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty.
Key Benefits
- Dual Xeon X5460 3.16GHz processors: 8 cores of enterprise processing power for virtualisation, application serving, and multi-threaded workloads in a 1U chassis.
- 3TB HDD included: Storage is ready to deploy — no need to source drives separately before putting the server into service.
- Compact 1U form factor: Maximum rack density in standard 19-inch enclosures — ideal for co-location where per-rack-unit cost matters.
- Dual embedded Gigabit Ethernet: Supports NIC teaming or dedicated management and data network segments for flexible network configuration.
- SAS drive support: High-performance SAS connectivity for reliable, low-latency I/O in demanding server applications.
- Dell iDRAC included: Out-of-band remote management for headless operation, monitoring, and power control without physical server access.
Performance In Use
The PowerEdge 1950 was designed for high-density rack deployments where every rack unit counts. Dual Xeon X5460 CPUs at 3.16GHz deliver genuine multi-core throughput in a chassis that consumes just one rack unit — valuable in co-location environments where per-U pricing applies directly to operating costs.
With 3TB HDD installed, this unit is immediately deployable for file services, backup targets, or application hosting without additional storage procurement. The 4GB RAM base suits test-and-development environments, secondary production roles, and workloads that are not memory-intensive. The platform supports DDR2 FB-DIMM expansion for more demanding use cases.
The 1U form factor and dual NICs make the 1950 well-suited for network-attached storage, log aggregation, secondary database nodes, and web serving. For organisations running mixed legacy Dell infrastructure, it integrates cleanly into existing rack environments and iDRAC management workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this server include hard drives?
Yes — this unit includes 3TB HDD. Additional SAS/SATA drives can be added depending on bay configuration.
Can the RAM be expanded?
Yes — the PowerEdge 1950 supports DDR2 FB-DIMM expansion beyond the 4GB shipped in this unit.
Does it come with rack rails?
No — rack rails are not included. Compatible Dell PowerEdge 1950 rails are available separately from server hardware suppliers.
What is the difference between Excellent and Good grade?
Excellent (Grade A) units show minimal cosmetic marks. Good (Grade B) show light surface wear. Both are fully tested and carry the same 12-month warranty.
What are the shipping costs?
Shipping costs apply based on size and destination — rates are calculated at checkout.
Is remote management included?
Yes — the PowerEdge 1950 includes Dell iDRAC for out-of-band remote management and hardware monitoring.
12-Month Warranty — Reboot IT
Every Dell PowerEdge 1950 sold by Reboot IT is covered by a 12-month warranty. Shipping costs apply based on size and destination — rates are calculated at checkout.
