Configured as a 1U rack server, this Dell PowerEdge R260 combines a single Intel Xeon E-2436 (6 cores at 2.90GHz) with 32GB of DDR5. For storage it carries an 8TB 7.2K SATA hard drive and a 960GB SATA SSD (8.96TB combined), filling every bay of the 2-bay 3.5-inch chassis.
The build is rounded out by PERC S160 software RAID, dual-port 1GbE RJ45 networking (Broadcom 5720) and a 450W power supply. Also included: an iDRAC9 Basic licence for out-of-band management and a rack rail kit.
This is a sensible size for directory services, file and print, a small line-of-business application or a test and development lab. Memory per core is in the middle of the range, a sensible balance for general server work. Console access, power control and hardware alerts stay available over the management port whatever state the operating system is in.
That is twice the memory of a lighter R260 build, which matters most for virtual machines and caching. The 6 cores are half as much again as the count of a lighter R260 build, so more work runs in parallel.
Condition is certified refurbished, and each server is inspected, bench-tested and wiped in Johannesburg.

Frequently asked questions
How much raw storage does this PowerEdge R260 have?
- 1 × 8TB 7.2K SATA HDD plus 1 × 960GB SATA SSD, 8.96TB of raw capacity in total. Usable space depends on the RAID level you configure.
Is there room to add more drives?
- Every bay of the 2-bay 3.5-inch chassis is populated in this configuration, so adding capacity means larger drives rather than more of them.
How many processor cores does it have?
- One Intel Xeon E-2436 with 6 cores at a 2.90GHz base clock: 6 physical cores in total, backed by 32GB of memory.
Does it include remote management?
- Yes. The configuration lists an iDRAC9 Basic licence, which provides out-of-band management (power control and hardware monitoring) independent of the operating system.
