PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Dell PowerEdge R470 1U Rack Server (Configure-to-Order) - Local Warranty
1U, Single-Socket Intel Xeon 6 Efficiency
The Dell PowerEdge R470 is a 1U, single-socket 17th-generation rack server built around one Intel Xeon 6 processor: an E-core model with up to 144 cores for dense, power-efficient scale-out work, or a P-core model with up to 86 cores (R1S option) for higher per-core performance. Sixteen DDR5 RDIMM slots run at up to 6400 MT/s, for up to 1 TB with E-core or 4 TB with P-core processors.
Flash-First Storage in a Short Footprint
Front bays take up to 16 x EDSFF E3.S Gen5 NVMe drives or up to 10 x 2.5-inch drives, with up to 2 more E3.S drives at the rear. Up to four PCIe Gen5 slots and an optional OCP NIC 3.0 card suit cloud-scale web services, data services, virtualisation and scale-out databases.
Managed and Secured by iDRAC
Every R470 includes Dell's iDRAC embedded management with iDRAC Direct, a Redfish RESTful API and RACADM CLI, backed by a Silicon Root of Trust, cryptographically signed firmware, Secure Boot and a FIPS-certified TPM 2.0.

How to Configure Your Server — Sizing Checklist
Servers are built to order. Answer the questions below so we can size the right configuration for you.
Step 1: Hardware Requirements
- Which server form factor do you need: tower or rackmount?
- How many CPU cores, how much RAM and how much usable storage capacity do you require?
- How many processors: single-socket (1S), dual-socket (2S) or four-socket (4S)?
- Which RAID configuration do you need? Any specific HDD or SSD type, such as 7.2K or 10K rpm drives?
- Which network interface is required: 1GbE Base-T, SFP+ or Fibre Channel?
- How many years of maintenance support do you need? (Minimum 3 years)
Step 2: Deployment & Services
- How many server units are required?
- Will you run virtual machine workloads? Do you need a VMware licence, or Windows Server with Hyper-V?
- How do you store data today? Do you have existing NAS or SAN storage?
- How do you back up today? Would you like a backup proposal, such as an IDPA 8TB appliance?
- Do you require burn-in test services?
- Do you need hard disk retention services?
Operating Systems, Management & Workloads
Operating Systems & Hypervisors
Canonical Ubuntu Server LTS, Microsoft Windows Server with Hyper-V, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and VMware ESXi. Check Dell's OS support matrix for the exact versions certified on your chosen processor.
Management Tools
iDRAC provides out-of-band console access, monitoring and alerting from day one, and its Redfish API and RACADM CLI let the R470 slot into scripted and fleet-wide management.
Typical Workloads
Cloud-scale web services, data services, virtualisation and scale-out databases where 1U density and power efficiency matter.
