The Single-Socket Math Most Virtualization Teams Miss

Ask most architects how to add 160 cores to a rack and they will spec a dual-socket build – two CPUs, two sockets of licensing, twice the power draw. The Dell PowerEdge R7715 exists to challenge that default: one 5th Generation AMD EPYC 9005 最大搭載プロセッサ 160 cores in a single socket, 24 DDR5 slots, dual OCP networking and up to 40 EDSFF E3.S drives in a 2U chassis. For virtualization and HCI estates, the R7715 delivers the density of a dual-socket node at single-socket licensing and power cost.

Single-Socket vs Traditional Dual-Socket

寸法	R7715 (single-socket)	Typical dual-socket 2U
CPU cores	まで 160 (1 x EPYC 9005)	まで 128 (2 x 64-core)
CPU licensing	1 socket	2 sockets
メモリー	24 x DDR5, まで 6 結核	32 x DDR5
PCIe Gen5 スロット	まで 8	まで 8
OCP NIC slots	2 ×OCP 3.0	1-2 ×OCP 3.0
力 & heat	One socket to feed and cool	Two sockets

Per-core licensing for hypervisors like VMware is the sleeper cost in every virtualization refresh – the R7715 halves that line item while keeping the core count, which is exactly why Dell positions it for “virtualization with lower licensing costs” and hyper-converged infrastructure.

AMD EPYC 9005 プラットフォーム

The 5th Generation AMD EPYC 9005 Series brings up to 160 cores per processor with DDR5 support at up to 5200 MT/s across 24 registered ECC DIMM slots (6 最大TB). AMD’s platform security is built in: Secure Encrypted Virtualization (sev) isolates VMs from the hypervisor, と Secure Memory Encryption (中小企業) encrypts memory in place – both especially valuable in multi-tenant virtualization and HCI clusters.

保管所 & レイド

Drive-bay flexibility is a headline feature: 2 x U.2, 12 x 3.5 インチ SAS/SATA, 8/16/24 x 2.5 インチ SAS/SATA, 16 x 2.5-inch SSD + 8 x U.2 NVMe, と 8/16/32/40 × EDSFF E3.S layouts – the E3.S Gen5 path is the future-proofing play for high-density NVMe. RAID is handled by PERC H365i, H965i or H975i with BOSS-N1 (DC-MHS) hardware-RAID M.2 boot and an external HBA465e for JBOD expansion.

通信網 & PCIeの拡張

Two OCP NIC 3.0 スロット (Gen5 x16 each) support 1GbE through 400GbE, and the AIC NIC options extend to 100/400GbE, NDR VPI and Fibre Channel 32/64. For smartNIC architectures, the R7715 offers NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPU options (2 x 200GbE or 1 x 400GbE) for offloaded networking and security. Eight x16 Gen5 PCIe slots (フルハイト, low-profile and dual-width full-length) handle GPU, HCA and storage cards with room to spare.
