Supermicro SC826TQ-R500LPB 500-Watts Redundant Single Output Power Supply Server Chassis

Product Description

The Supermicro SC826TQ-R500LPB is a high-performance 2U rackmount chassis engineered to provide a dense and reliable platform for servers and storage solutions. Its compact 2U form factor allows for efficient use of rack space while offering substantial internal capacity. The chassis is designed to accommodate up to eight 3.5-inch hot-swap hard drives, supporting both SAS and SATA interfaces. This hot-swap capability is critical for enterprise environments, enabling drives to be replaced or added without interrupting system operation, thereby ensuring high availability and minimizing downtime. Powering this robust chassis is a 500-Watt redundant power supply system (1+1 configuration). Redundancy means that if one power supply unit fails, the other takes over seamlessly, preventing system shutdown. The power supplies are also rated at Platinum Level efficiency, indicating a very high level of energy conversion efficiency (typically 90-94% at various load levels), which translates to lower power consumption, reduced heat generation, and cost savings on electricity bills. This makes the SC826TQ-R500LPB an environmentally conscious and cost-effective choice for data centers. Designed with server workloads in mind, the SC826TQ-R500LPB features an advanced cooling system with multiple high-speed fans to ensure optimal airflow and maintain low operating temperatures for all components, even under heavy load. It supports a wide range of motherboard form factors, including E-ATX, ATX, and Micro-ATX, offering flexibility in system configuration. With its combination of high storage density, redundant high-efficiency power, and robust cooling, this Supermicro chassis is an ideal foundation for building powerful storage servers, virtualization hosts, or application servers.
