Since the introduction of the Generation 10 servers in 2007 Dell has adopted a standardized method for naming their servers the name of each server is now represented by a letter followed by 3 digits. The Dell Itanium-based servers were introduced before this new naming-convention was introduced and were only available as rack servers.
Over the years, many different types of PowerEdge servers have been introduced and there was wide variety of product and family codes used within the PowerEdge name. Most modern servers are either 1U or 2U high while in the past the 4U was more common. The 19″ rack-servers come in different physical heights expressed in rack units or U. In the current naming scheme, towers are designated by T, racks by R, and blades by M (for modular). Different models are or were available as towers, 19-inch racks or blades. The PowerEdge is a server line by Dell, following the naming convention for other Dell products: the PowerVault (data storage) and the PowerConnect (data transfer & switches).īelow is an overview of current and former servers within Dell's PowerEdge product line.
