01 — Overview

The R570 at a glance

Our read of Dell’s documentation: where the R570 is strong, and the limits worth knowing before you spec one.

Strengths

  • Three processor types for one socket: seven E-core parts up to 144 cores, ten standard P-core parts up to 86 cores, and six R1S P-core parts carrying 136 PCIe 5.0 lanes.
  • Twelve front storage layouts in a single chassis, from 12 × 3.5-inch SATA disk (384 TB) through 24 × 2.5-inch SATA to 32 × E3.S Gen5 NVMe, rated at 1966.08 TB raw.
  • Up to three double-wide accelerators in Dell’s 400 W class (its memory table names the NVIDIA L40S and H100 NVL) or four 75 W single-wide L4 cards, fed by just one processor.
  • A cold-aisle build moves the OCP slots, DB9 serial and iDRAC Ethernet to the front of the rack, beside 8 or 16 E3.S bays.
  • DDR5 rated to 6400 MT/s, against 5200 MT/s on the R760xs Dell compares it with, and iDRAC10 management.

Watch-outs

  • Sixteen DIMM slots set the ceiling: 4 TB needs all sixteen filled with 256 GB modules on a standard P-core part at 5200 MT/s, while E-core parts stop at 1 TB and R1S parts at 2 TB.
  • Six of the twelve riser configurations (RC1, RC4, RC6, RC8, RC10 and RC11) accept only R1S processors, so the slot layout you need can dictate the CPU.
  • Dell’s GPU thermal table covers only the cold-aisle 8 × and 16 × E3.S fronts, and holds 350 W processors to 30°C inlet in those builds.
  • The four rear E3.S bays pair only with the 12 × 3.5-inch front and riser configuration RC 7; every other front has no rear drives.
  • No software RAID and no internal HBA: internal RAID means a PERC H365i or H965i, front-mounted or as a PCIe adapter.

  • R1S processors (6781P, 6761P, 6741P, 6731P, 6521P, 6511P) provide up to 136 PCIe 5.0 lanes where other Xeon 6 parts provide 88, per the guide’s processor chapter and riser notes; its Table 1 prints 136 against the P-core row as a whole. Dell gives their UPI speed as N/A and their memory capacity as 2 TB.
  • The 6731E and 6710E are listed with 5600 MT/s memory; every other processor in the table shows 6400 MT/s.
  • Turbo is marked only with the word “Turbo” in Dell’s tables, so no boost clocks are shown here.
  • The 2U standard heat sink covers processors of 150 W or less outside the 12 × 3.5-inch chassis; hotter parts, and every processor in the 12 × 3.5-inch chassis, use the HPR heat sink.
03 — Memory

16 DDR5 DIMM slots

Sixteen DDR5 RDIMM slots on eight channels, two per channel. What you can fit depends on the processor type: E-core parts take only 32 GB and 64 GB modules, while P-core parts accept everything from 16 GB to 256 GB — and the 256 GB module is supported only when all sixteen slots are filled.

  • 4 TB is sixteen 256 GB modules on a standard P-core processor, running at 5200 MT/s. Keeping the full 6400 MT/s limits you to eight modules, one per channel — 1 TB with 128 GB DIMMs.
  • Per-processor ceilings in Dell’s processor tables: 1 TB for E-core parts, 2 TB for R1S parts and 4 TB for standard P-core parts.
  • Dell’s population guide allows 1, 4, 8, 12 or 16 DIMMs depending on module size and processor type; memory mirroring and Fault Resilient Mode need 8 or 16.
  • For GPU builds Dell recommends system memory of 1.5 to 2 times the total GPU memory — 423–564 GB for three H100 NVL cards.
04 — Storage

13 drive-bay layouts, up to 32 bays

Dell lists twelve front configurations for the R570, plus a diskless one, across three formats: 3.5-inch SATA disk, 2.5-inch SATA or NVMe, and EDSFF E3.S Gen5 NVMe in hot-aisle (rear I/O) or cold-aisle (front I/O) chassis. The largest front holds 32 E3.S drives; the four rear E3.S bays come only with the 12 × 3.5-inch front.

  • Internal RAID is PERC 12 — H365i or H965i, front-mounted in the DC-MHS form or fitted as a PCIe adapter. There is no software RAID, and SAS, SATA and NVMe cannot be mixed behind one controller.
  • Boot sits outside the data bays on a BOSS-N1 DC-MHS module or an M.2 interposer, each taking up to two M.2 NVMe SSDs; Dell’s drive table lists 480 GB and 960 GB M.2 parts.
  • For external storage Dell lists the PERC H965e and HBA465e, USB tape and 12 Gb MD-series JBODs.
  • The guide is inconsistent on interfaces: its front-bay lists and comparison table call the 3.5-inch and 2.5-inch fronts SATA, while its internal-storage list and thermal tables label them SAS or SAS/SATA. We confirm the drive interface when we quote.

GPUs, PCIe and networking

Accelerators go in the PCIe risers. Dell rates the R570 for three double-wide cards at 400 W or four single-wide cards at 75 W, and its memory-sizing table names three models: the NVIDIA L4 (up to four), and the L40S and H100 NVL (up to three each). Up to 3 × double-wide 400 W or 4 × single-wide 75 W; Dell’s GPU thermal table lists only the cold-aisle 8 × and 16 × E3.S fronts.

  • OCP count depends on the I/O layout. A front-I/O build has two OCP slots at the front; for rear I/O, Dell’s Table 1 and comparison table give one rear slot, while its NIC appendix allows up to two cards front or rear, depending on the I/O configuration.
  • Dell’s feature table marks the six-slot figure with an asterisk, the guide’s flag for features that may arrive after launch.
  • Only the rear OCP card in slot 10 can carry iDRAC traffic as a shared NIC; a secondary OCP cannot.
  • The NVIDIA BlueField-3 B3220 DPU (2 × 200 GbE, PCIe Gen5 x16, 150 W) is supported in nine of the riser configurations.
  • Connecting the front iDRAC port to a network automatically switches the rear one off.

  • Below 200 V the picture changes: the 1100 W and 1500 W AC supplies are rated at 1050 W on 100–120 V, while both 800 W units hold 800 W. For the 1800 W unit the PSU specification table shows 1050 W, but the high/low-line rating table gives no low-line figure.
  • High-line peak ratings run from 1240 W for the 800 W units to 2790 W for the 1800 W unit. For configuration-level sizing Dell recommends its EIPT calculator.
  • With two supplies of different wattage the larger one is enabled and a mismatch warning shown; a second supply added at run time must match the first to be enabled.
  • Cabling: C13 for the AC units, LOTES APOWA048 for the −48 V DC supply, and APP 2006G1/2006G3 for the 277 V supply.

The R570 family side by side

The R570 is the 2U single-socket machine among Dell’s Xeon 6 rack servers. The R470 puts one socket and 16 DIMM slots into 1U; the R670 and R770 add a second socket and 32 slots in 1U and 2U; the R760xs is the model Dell compares it with; and the R5715 is the single-socket AMD EPYC 2U. The bars compare the documented limits of each.

09 — Use cases

Five builds that suit the R570

Five builds that use what a single Xeon 6 socket in 2U can do, each kept inside Dell’s thermal and riser rules. All parts are drawn from what the configurator permits on the R570; open any build to adjust it.

Virtualisation & cloud

144 E-cores in one socket

The 250 W 6766E puts 144 single-threaded cores in the one socket. E-core parts accept only 32 GB and 64 GB modules, so sixteen 64 GB DIMMs — 1 TB, the E-core limit — is the natural fill. Dell’s air-cooling table runs this processor at 35°C with either 16 × E3.S front.

  • 1 × Xeon 6 6766E144 cores @ 1.9 GHz, 250 W
  • 16 × 64 GB DDR5-6400 RDIMM — 1 TB at two per channel (5200 MT/s)
  • 10 × 7.68 TB E3.S Gen5 NVMe — 76.8 TB raw, six bays free
  • BOSS-N1 DC-MHS boot module (2 × M.2 NVMe)
  • 4 × 25GbE SFP28 OCP 3.0
  • 2 × 1500 W Titanium (1+1)
  • VMware vSphere ESXi 9.0

Scale-out database

High-clock database node

Sixteen P-cores at a 3.6 GHz base keep per-core licence counts down. Eight 128 GB modules, one per channel, give 1 TB at the full 6400 MT/s, and eight direct-attach NVMe drives hold the working set.

  • 1 × Xeon 6 6724P16 cores @ 3.6 GHz, 210 W
  • 8 × 128 GB DDR5-6400 RDIMM — 1 TB at one DIMM per channel
  • 8 × 7.68 TB NVMe Gen4 U.2, direct-attach — 61.44 TB raw
  • BOSS-N1 DC-MHS boot module
  • 2 × 25GbE SFP28 OCP 3.0
  • 2 × 1100 W Titanium (1+1)
  • Windows Server 2025

For hardware RAID across NVMe drives Dell lists a separate 8 × 2.5-inch NVMe RAID front; we confirm the backplane and controller when we quote.

AI inference

Three H100 NVL on one CPU

The R570 is rated for three double-wide cards in the 400 W class from a single processor. An R1S part such as the 48-core 6741P brings 136 PCIe lanes, and Dell’s sizing table suggests 423–564 GB of system memory for three H100 NVL — which sixteen 32 GB DIMMs (512 GB) meets.

  • 1 × Xeon 6 6741P (R1S)48 cores @ 2.5 GHz, 300 W
  • 3 × NVIDIA H100 NVL (double-wide, 94 GB each)
  • 16 × 32 GB DDR5-6400 RDIMM — 512 GB at 5200 MT/s
  • 4 × 7.68 TB E3.S Gen5 NVMe on an 8-bay E3.S front
  • BOSS-N1 DC-MHS boot module
  • 2 × 100GbE QSFP56 OCP 3.0
  • 2 × 1800 W Titanium (1+1)
  • Ubuntu Server 24.04 LTS

Dell’s GPU thermal table covers only the cold-aisle 8 × and 16 × E3.S fronts, with the GPU shroud, HPR Gold fans and 1U EXT heat sink; 350 W processors drop to 30°C there. Dell’s two PSU tables disagree on the 1800 W supply at 100–120 V (1050 W in one, no figure in the other), so we confirm input voltage and the riser layout for three double-wide cards when we quote.

Software-defined storage

240 TB of disk plus an NVMe tier

Only the 12 × 3.5-inch front can be paired with the four rear E3.S bays, which makes it the R570’s capacity-plus-flash layout: twelve 20 TB disks for bulk data and four Gen5 NVMe drives for metadata or cache. That pairing uses riser configuration RC 7 with a PERC adapter.

  • 1 × Xeon 6 6517P16 cores @ 3.2 GHz, 190 W
  • 12 × 20 TB 3.5" SATA 7.2K — 240 TB raw
  • 4 × 7.68 TB E3.S Gen5 NVMe in the rear bays — 30.72 TB
  • PERC H965i adapter
  • 8 × 32 GB DDR5-6400 RDIMM — 256 GB at one DIMM per channel
  • BOSS-N1 DC-MHS boot module
  • 4 × 25GbE SFP28 OCP 3.0
  • 2 × 1100 W Titanium (1+1)
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9

In the 12 × 3.5-inch chassis every processor takes the HPR heat sink and HPR Gold fans. We confirm the controller and cabling for the rear NVMe bays when we quote.

All-flash capacity

32 E3.S bays in 2U

The hot-aisle 32 × E3.S front is the R570’s densest layout. The 32-core, 270 W 6737P is cooled at 35°C in that chassis with HPR Gold fans, and 100GbE OCP networking carries replication traffic between nodes.

  • 1 × Xeon 6 6737P32 cores @ 2.9 GHz, 270 W
  • 32 × 15.36 TB E3.S Gen5 NVMe — 491.52 TB raw
  • 16 × 64 GB DDR5-6400 RDIMM — 1 TB
  • BOSS-N1 DC-MHS boot module
  • 2 × 100GbE QSFP56 OCP 3.0
  • 2 × 1500 W Titanium (1+1)
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9

This front has no rear-drive option. Dell’s E3.S list runs to 61.44 TB per drive if you need more raw capacity.

12 — FAQ

R570 questions, answered from the documentation

What is the maximum memory of the Dell PowerEdge R570?

Up to 4 TB, using sixteen 256 GB RDIMMs with a standard (non-R1S) P-core processor, running at 5200 MT/s. Dell caps R1S processors at 2 TB and E-core processors at 1 TB, the latter reached with sixteen 64 GB modules. The largest build at the full 6400 MT/s is eight 128 GB modules, one per channel — 1 TB.

Which processors does the R570 support?

Twenty-three Intel Xeon 6 models, one per server. Seven are E-core parts with 64–144 cores at 205–330 W; ten are standard P-core parts with 8–86 cores at 150–350 W; and six are R1S P-core parts with 16–80 cores and 136 PCIe lanes.

How many PCIe lanes and slots does the R570 have, and what is R1S?

Standard Xeon 6 processors supply 88 PCIe 5.0 lanes; R1S parts supply 136. Dell lists up to six x16 slots, four of them Gen5, across twelve riser configurations — and six of those (RC1, RC4, RC6, RC8, RC10, RC11) work only with an R1S processor, so choose the riser layout before the CPU.

How many drive bays does the R570 have?

Up to 32 EDSFF E3.S Gen5 NVMe drives at the front of the hot-aisle chassis. Other fronts include 12 × 3.5-inch SATA, up to 24 × 2.5-inch SATA and 8 or 16 E3.S in cold-aisle builds. Four rear E3.S bays are available only with the 12 × 3.5-inch front, giving 16 drives in that chassis.

How many GPUs can the R570 take?

Up to three double-wide accelerators at 400 W, or four single-wide at 75 W. Dell’s memory-sizing table names the NVIDIA L4 (one to four), L40S and H100 NVL (one to three each). Its GPU thermal table lists only the cold-aisle 8 × and 16 × E3.S fronts, where 350 W processors are held to 30°C inlet.

What is the difference between the front-I/O and rear-I/O R570?

In the cold-aisle (front I/O) build the OCP NIC slots, a DB9 serial port and a dedicated iDRAC port sit at the front beside 8 or 16 E3.S bays and front PCIe risers, and the rear keeps power, VGA, USB and a second iDRAC port with blanks in the riser and OCP bays. That chassis cannot take a bezel and is 814.5 mm deep. Rear-I/O builds keep networking at the hot aisle.

How big and heavy is the PowerEdge R570?

The chassis measures 86.8 mm by 482 mm (height by width). Rear-I/O builds are 802.38 mm deep with a bezel and 801.49 mm without; the front-I/O build measures 814.5 mm and has no bezel option. Maximum weight is 31 kg with twelve 3.5-inch drives, and a full 32 × E3.S system is listed at 24.2 kg.

How does the R570 compare with the R760xs?

Dell’s comparison sets the R570’s one Xeon 6 processor of up to 144 cores against the R760xs’s two Xeon Scalable processors of up to 32 cores. Memory speed rises from 5200 to 6400 MT/s on the same 16 slots, accelerator support grows from two 75 W cards to three 400 W double-wides, Gen5 slots go from two to four, and the LOM ports give way to OCP.

How does the R570 differ from the R470 and R770?

The R470 is the 1U single-socket sibling with the same 16 DIMM slots. The R770 is 2U like the R570 but takes two processors and 32 DIMM slots, for up to 8 TB. The R570 sits between them: one socket, with 2U of room for drives and double-wide GPUs.

Is the Dell PowerEdge R570 end of life?

Dell’s R570 guide (Rev. A04, December 2025) gives no end-of-sale or end-of-support date, and still marks some features as possible later additions. Dell’s services appendix puts base warranties at 1 or 3 years by model, extendable through ProSupport. Our end-of-life checker adds dates once Dell publishes them.
