Entry-Level Servers

Small businesses need to be agile to make the most of their business opportunities. In the United States, only 39.2% of small businesses have full-time IT staff in-house.* Small businesses are challenged to manage expenses, improve productivity and reduce organizational complexities. If you’re wondering where to start, we’re here to help with the challenges your unique business might be facing and guide you to the right server technology solutions and assist with reaching your IT goals — no matter how big or small.

Our one-socket PowerEdge servers are built to process data quickly and enable everyday business applications to run faster and reduce interruptions. While these servers are designed for small to medium businesses, their increased performance, enterprise-class management and robust security capabilities make them just as applicable for larger organizations. They come in either a rack form factor that sits in a server rack, or a tower form factor, which looks like the traditional computer tower. If you’re wondering how these servers would fit in your office, just remember that a rack server takes up less space in a server room, while a tower server fits easily underneath most desks.

These four servers, the PowerEdge T140, T340, R240 and R340, feature a couple of new important updates. The key feature among all of these is the latest Intel® Xeon® E-2200 processors. These processors now provide twice as many² cores than the previous server generation (up to 8 cores versus 4 cores), allowing for increased performance and faster task completion. You can improve performance by up to 35% faster using PowerEdge one-socket servers with Intel® Xeon® E-2200 processors.³

Something else to think about is how to automate your server lifecycle. Automation is key when it comes to handling routine tasks. By leveraging these simple and efficient tools, you’ll reduce time and effort on server management and invest more time on bigger priorities. As a business, you never want your applications to stop working, so we’ve integrated built-in security, proactive support and hot-plug options to keep your business operating.
