2U 1S Server; Maximize NVMe Capacity
This 2U PowerEdge R7415 configuration supports twenty-four NVMe drives. Two PCIe
switches are included, which allows the system to overprovision PCIe lanes to more
NVMe drives while persevering I/O slots, which are then connected directly to the CPU.
Customers requiring large capacity with the low latency of NVMe will benefit from this
configuration, with up to 24 NVMe drives available for population.
