Universal Slots are common 2.5” drive bay backplane slots supporting both SAS/SATA and PCIe SSD drives in the same slot.
These slots can be connected to the primary storage controller (PERC) for SAS/SATA disks or a PCIe extender card for NVMe disks.
Backplane firmware provides information on the slots that support this feature.

25 & 100GbE Technologies will be main stream Ethernet by 2021
– Over half of all datacenter Ethernet switch shipments will be 25 &
100GbE
Crehan Research, January 17, 2017

• Factors driving expected volumes include:

– Very small to little price premium over comparable 10GbE and 40GbE

– 25GbE currently uses the same number of lanes as 10Gb

– 100GbE currently uses the same number of lanes as 40GbE

– Compatibility with existing data center fiber cabling

– Hyper-scale cloud provider demand can reduce costs

Dell Performance Analysis Collection Kit (DPACK)  Live Optics!
• What is DPACK (Live Optics)?
In an effort to help guide you through mission-critical IT decisions, Dell's solution team has developed an innovative
new tool to analyze resource utilization and support the capacity planning. This complimentary tool will help you
make the most impactful decisions for your business, whether it's reducing wasteful spending or analyzing
opportunities for virtualization or data center expansion.

Dell Performance Analysis Collection Kit
(DPACK)
• Analyze the workload style
DPACK runs remotely and agentless to gather core requirements, including:
• CPU Capacity and Memory utilization
• Disk Read/Write Throughput IOPS
• Network Throughput, Latency, Queue Depth
• Server workload and capacity requirements at Peak Utilization

• DPACK generates two kinds of reports:

1. An in-depth individual server report to be used by IT administrators to
search for potential bottlenecks or hotspots that need to be engineered
out of a new design
2. Centralized aggregation of resource reports across disparate servers,
with a simulation of those workloads if consolidated to shared resources
