The Dell™ PowerEdge™ M820's scalability makes it a perfect fit for core business applications or

consolidated workloads. Virtual environments supporting large numbers of sizeable virtual machines

will find the M820 a perfect choice. With up to four Intel

Xeon

E5-4600 processors and up to

1.5 TB of RAM per node—12 TB of memory in just a single M1000e chassis—the M820's remarkable

computational capability and memory scalability can address even the toughest demands. With

Dell's Select Network Adapter, you can fully customize the I/O capabilities of the M820 to match the

networking technology that's right for your applications.

Ensure maximum uptime with the fully redundant M-series power, cooling and networking

infrastructure designed to provide the stability and resiliency our customers demand for Enterprise-

class deployments. The M820's design matches Dell's commitment to reliability, with features such

as multiple hardware RAID choices and our unique failsafe virtualization technology, which utilizes

redundant SD media to provide failover capabilities for embedded hypervisors.

Help manage your servers using the Dell OpenManage™ portfolio, including Dell's exclusive

Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) with Lifecycle Controller. iDRAC, an embedded

systems management feature, allows Dell servers to be managed in physical, virtual, local and

remote environments, either in-band or out-of-band and with or without a systems management

software agent. OpenManage also integrates and connects to leading third-party systems

management solutions you may already use, allowing you to maintain a single point of control and

capitalize on your existing investment. OpenManage simplifies the lifecycle of deploying, updating,

monitoring, and maintaining your Dell PowerEdge servers.

Implement the right combination of features and performance scalability with the PowerEdge M-

series blade servers that can handle tough workloads in any size data centers. In addition to the

world-class management features provided in all PowerEdge servers, the M820 also takes advantage

of the capabilities of the M1000e Chassis Management Controller (CMC). The CMC allows M-series

blades to be managed individually or as groups, in single or multiple chassis, and within a data

center or in multiple geographically dispersed locations around the globe without requiring a single

agent or additional hardware. PowerEdge M-series blade servers use the redundant power, cooling,

and networking infrastructure provided by the Dell M1000e blade enclosure, which is exceptionally

easy to deploy and manage and maximizes power and cooling efficiency.
