The FC430, meanwhile, is a quarter-width, half-height server block that, according to Dell, has the ability to host applications in smaller servers to minimize risk of system failures.
Lastly, the FC830 is a full-width, half-height 4-socket server block featuring up to four next-generation multi-core Intel Xeon processors, has 3TB of memory, up to 8 PCIe expansion slots, up to sixteen 1.8-inch SATA flash drives or eight 2.5-inch drives, a dual-port 10Gb SNA and support for Express Flash NVMe PCIe SSDs. Dell says that it is meant for running database driven, mission critical applications for midsize and large businesses.
The first two models are now available in Canada while the FC830 will be available in June.
