This Dell PowerEdge R6525 is a 1U rack server built around two AMD EPYC 7453 processors (28 cores each, 2.75GHz base clock) and 256GB of DDR4 memory. The drive complement is four 18TB 7.2K SAS hard drives, 72TB before RAID with all bays of the 4-bay 3.5-inch chassis populated.
Around that sit a PERC H355 RAID controller, dual-port 1GbE RJ45 networking (Broadcom 5720) and dual 800W power supplies. The configuration also lists iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management and rack rails.
Think of it as a storage node first: 72TB raw suits a backup repository, a surveillance or media archive, or a departmental file store. Set up as RAID 10, the four drives keep half their raw space and stay mirrored.
Flash builds of the R6525 respond faster; this one is the capacity choice. Memory here is twice that of a lighter R6525 configuration, leaving more headroom for memory-bound work.
Our Johannesburg team inspects and bench-tests the server and wipes any stored data before it is released as certified refurbished.
