help Dell PowerEdge R660 FAQ
Which processors does the Dell PowerEdge R660 actually support?
The R660 supports up to two fourth-generation Intel Xeon Scalable or Xeon Max processors, plus configurations with fifth-generation Xeon Scalable processors. It does not use the much older Xeon E5-2600 v3 family found in servers from the mid-2010s.
Which PowerEdge R660 components can be replaced without shutting down?
Configured hot-plug drive bays and redundant power supplies can be serviced while the server remains operational. Safe replacement still requires confirming RAID status, drive identification, redundancy, and Dell's procedure before removing hardware.
How much rack space does a PowerEdge R660 require?
The R660 is a dense 1U rack server. Despite that height, it supports two processors, 32 DIMM slots, two redundant power supplies, and several front-storage configurations.
How many drives can a Dell PowerEdge R660 hold?
Common front configurations support eight or ten 2.5-inch SAS, SATA, or NVMe drives. Dell also offers denser EDSFF E3.S configurations, so the chassis and backplane must match the intended drive type.
