Dell PowerEdge R210 II — Compact 1U Rack Server for Small Business

The Dell PowerEdge R210 II is a 1U rack server purpose-built for small businesses, remote offices and edge computing deployments. Powered by an Intel Xeon E3-1240 V2 processor with 8GB DDR3 ECC RAM and 2TB storage, it delivers reliable server performance in an exceptionally compact footprint.

Key Benefits

• Xeon E3-1240 V2 Processor: 3.4GHz quad-core with Hyper-Threading delivers 8 threads — ample for file serving, email and light virtualisation.
• ECC Memory: Error-correcting RAM reduces data corruption risk — critical for server reliability and uptime in business environments.
• 8GB DDR3 ECC RAM: Ready to run business workloads immediately, with room to expand as your needs grow.
• 2TB HDD Storage: Substantial local storage for file sharing, backup targets and application data.
• 1U Rack Form Factor: Ultra-compact 1U design maximises rack density without sacrificing server capability.
• iDRAC Express Management: Remote out-of-band management for hardware monitoring, power control and KVM access.

Performance in Use

The PowerEdge R210 II is ideally suited for small business environments where a dedicated server is needed but rack space is limited. It handles file and print sharing, domain services (Active Directory), backup targets or lightweight web serving without issue.

For remote or branch office environments, the R210 II's compact 1U footprint makes it easy to deploy in a half-rack or small enclosure. The iDRAC Express management interface allows your IT team to monitor, reboot and troubleshoot the server remotely — eliminating costly on-site visits for routine issues.
