If you're buying a refurbished Dell PowerEdge, pin down the generation first. It decides which processors, memory, drive caddies and RAID controllers fit – and how far the system can be upgraded later. Below: how Dell's model names work, what separates 13G, 14G and 15G, and what to check on the remote management side.
The letter gives the form factor: R for rack server, T for tower, M and MX for blades in Dell's modular enclosures. On Intel models the digits follow a fixed pattern:
| Generation | Platform | Remote management and RAID | In our catalogue |
|---|---|---|---|
| 13G (from 2014) | Xeon E5-2600 v3/v4, DDR4 up to 2400, PCIe 3.0 | iDRAC 8, PERC H330, H730 and H730P | R630, R730, T630 |
| 14G (from 2017) | 1st and 2nd gen Xeon Scalable, DDR4 up to 2933, Optane PMem 100; R340 with Xeon E-2200 | iDRAC 9, PERC H730P and H740P, HBA330, BOSS boot card | R340, R640, R740, R740xd, T440 |
| 15G (from 2021) |
| 3rd gen Xeon Scalable, DDR4-3200, PCIe 4.0, Optane PMem 200 |
| iDRAC 9, PERC 11 (e.g. H755) |
| R750 |
Without a data sheet, three things tell you the generation: the processor (Xeon E5 v3/v4 in 13G, Xeon Scalable with numbers such as 6138 or 6230 in 14G, such as 6338 in 15G), the iDRAC version on the login page, and the drive caddies. 13G has its own caddies; 14G and 15G share one design. What the processor numbers mean is explained on our Intel Xeon page.
Every PowerEdge has its own management controller, the iDRAC, with a dedicated network port: iDRAC 8 on 13G, iDRAC 9 from 14G onwards. It shows sensors, logs and hardware inventory, powers the server remotely and includes the Lifecycle Controller, which updates firmware and installs operating systems without preparing boot media. Which features – the virtual console and virtual media, for instance – are unlocked depends on the licence tier: Express, Enterprise and, on iDRAC 9, Datacenter. The web interface shows which licence is installed. Our guide Remote management: iDRAC, iLO and IPMI compares it with HPE and Lenovo.
We buy decommissioned PowerEdge servers through our buyback service – including when you're moving to a newer generation at the same time.
