Introducing the Dell™ PowerEdge™ R905
High performance, streamlined virtualization deployment. The Dell PowerEdge R905 is a fine-tuned, four-socket rack server with an ideal mix of processor technology, memory capacity, and I/O scalability. Plus, it features twice the memory of previous generation Dell standard 4U 4-socket servers.

R905- #1 Virtualization Performance Without Breaking The Bank.
The R905 delivers the #1 VMark score for 4-socket virtualization performance at 25% less the cost than IBM System x3850 M2 and 23% better performance than HP Proliant DL 580 G5.

Simplify and Streamline
The PowerEdge R905 helps remove the barriers to running memory and I/O-bound applications like the VMware® ESX server™ and Citrix® Xenserver by allowing you to start migrating real virtual machines within a few clicks of a mouse, helping to streamline deployment in virtualized environments.
