Dell PowerEdge T150 Tower Server - Options Available

PowerEdge T150 Tower Server Overview

The Dell PowerEdge T150 is a 4U entry-level tower server that delivers reliable performance for foundational business workloads. Powered by Intel Xeon E-2300 series processors with up to 8 cores, the T150 provides the ideal balance of adaptability and affordability for small to medium-sized businesses, remote offices, and edge deployments.

Performance & Scalability

Built on Intel's latest platform, the T150 supports Intel Xeon E-2300 series processors with up to 8 cores, or Intel Pentium processors for budget-conscious deployments. With support for DDR4 3200 MT/s memory across 4 UDIMM slots (up to 128GB), you can easily scale your server to handle memory-intensive workloads as your business grows.

The T150 is the first entry-level tower to support PCIe Gen 4 technology, delivering double the throughput of Gen 3 (16GT/s vs 8GT/s per lane), significantly reducing data transfer times between storage and CPU. Four PCIe slots provide flexible expansion options for add-in cards.

Storage Flexibility

Configure your T150 with up to 4 x 3.5" cabled SAS/SATA drives (HDD or SSD) supporting a maximum of 30.72TB total storage. Choose from multiple RAID controller options:

• Software RAID S150 - Cost-effective solution for basic redundancy
• PERC H345/H755 - Hardware RAID for enhanced performance and data protection
• HBA355i/HBA355e - 12Gbps SAS HBA for non-RAID configurations
• BOSS-S1 - Boot Optimized Storage Subsystem (2 x M.2 SATA SSDs) for dedicated OS boot drive

Enhanced Thermal Efficiency

The T150 features improved thermal management with optimized airflow design and dust filters for extended component life. The tower form factor operates quietly with office-friendly acoustics, making it suitable for deployment in office environments while the compact design fits easily into small spaces.

Management & Security

Every PowerEdge T150 includes iDRAC9 (Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller) for comprehensive systems management. Choose from Basic or Enterprise licensing for features like remote console access, virtual media, and lifecycle logging. The T150 supports UEFI Secure Boot for enhanced security and faster boot times, along with cryptographically signed firmware, TPM 2.0, and silicon root of trust for cyber-resilient architecture.

PCIe Expansion

Four PCIe slots provide flexible expansion options:

• 1 x PCIe Gen 4 x16 slot (full height, half length)
• 1 x PCIe Gen 4 x4 slot (full height, half length)
• 1 x PCIe Gen 3 x4 slot (full height, half length)
• 1 x PCIe Gen 3 x1 slot (full height, half length)
