Supported hardware for DR series system appliances

Supported Virtual Environments for DR2000v

Supported Software

This guide provides information about currently supported hardware and software versions for the Dell DR Series system. The DR Series system software release 3.2.6.1 is supported on the following new DR Series system models: DR4300e, DR4300 and DR6300. The DR Series system software release 3.2.0.2 continues to support the Dell DR Series system models: DR4000, DR4100, DR6000, and DR2000v.

Supported system drive and capacities

Supported system drive and capacities

The DR Series system is available in the following models running DR Series system software 3.2.6.1:

Consists of preinstalled DR Series system software on a modified Dell PowerEdge R730xd appliance platform.

Consists of preinstalled DR Series system software on a modified Dell PowerEdge R730xd appliance platform and offers a higher base capacity than the DR4300e.

Consists of preinstalled DR Series system software Dell PowerEdge R730xd appliance platform and offers a higher base capacity than the DR4300.

The DR Series system is available in the following models running DR Series system software 3.2.0.2:

Consists of preinstalled DR Series system software on a modified Dell PowerEdge R510 appliance platform.

Consists of preinstalled DR Series system software on a modified Dell PowerEdge R720xd appliance platform.

Consists of preinstalled DR Series system software on a modified Dell PowerEdge R720xd appliance platform.

NOTE: DR6000 differs from the DR4100 by including a higher level of included system hardware. The DR4100 hardware configurations would not meet the hardware requirements for the DR6000 platform.

Internal system drive capacity

The following tables define the internal system drive capacity and available physical capacity in decimal and binary values for the physical DR Series hardware appliances. The capacity values listed represent the internal drive and available physical capacities that have been adjusted for the associated overhead in the DR Series system releases.

NOTE: TB and GB represent terabytes and gigabytes in decimal values, and TiB represents tebibytes in binary values. Tebibytes are a standards-based binary multiple of the byte, a unit of digital information storage.

NOTE: 300 GB DR4000 and DR4100 Series systems do not support external expansion shelf enclosures.

For information about external data storage capacity in the expansion shelf enclosures, see the following topic, “External Drive Capacity,” and the topic, “DR Series Expansion Shelf,” in the Dell DR Series System Administrator Guide, which you can download at dell.com/support/home.

External drive capacity

The capacity values listed in the following tables represent the additional storage capacity in the external drives available when you add the supported expansion shelf enclosures to a DR Series system appliance. Additional data storage can be added using the expansion shelf enclosures in the following capacities. For more information on the expansion shelf enclosures, see the topic “Expansion Unit Limits” in this document.
