Frequently asked questions

What does the warranty cover?

Our warranty covers all hardware faults, but please note it doesn’t cover accidental damage or software issues. However, we’re here to help with technical support for those matters!

What is a refurbished device?

A refurbished device is a pre-owned item that has been restored to meet high-quality standards. At Reboot IT, we adhere to strict quality guidelines, ensuring that our refurbished products are not the same as used or secondhand items. We meticulously clean, test, and assess each device, replacing worn parts with high-quality components.

Unlike used items, which lack guarantees and rely solely on the seller's word regarding condition, refurbished devices come with assurance of quality and reliability.

What payment options are available?

We offer a variety of payment options to make your shopping experience as convenient as possible! You can pay using all major credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Shop Pay, Afterpay, Zip Pay, and PayPal. If you prefer, we also accept bank deposits and even cash for in-store purchases!

Description

Dell PowerEdge 2950 — 2U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge 2950 is a dual-socket 2U rack server powered by dual Intel Xeon X5450 3GHz quad-core processors, delivering 8 cores of processing capacity, plus 16GB DDR2 RAM. Sold with no HDD, it ships ready for your own storage configuration. Backed by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty.

Key Benefits

  • Dual Xeon X5450 3GHz processors: 8 cores at 3GHz handle virtualisation, file serving, and legacy business applications without bottlenecks.
  • 16GB DDR2 FB-DIMM RAM: Solid memory capacity for moderate-to-heavy concurrent workloads with room for expansion.
  • 8 hot-swap drive bays: Accepts SAS or SATA drives — build your RAID array from scratch or repurpose existing drives without compatibility concerns.
  • Dual redundant power supplies: Hot-swap PSU redundancy keeps the server running if one power module fails — critical for always-on environments.
  • Dual embedded Gigabit Ethernet: Supports NIC teaming, failover, or separate management and data network segments out of the box.
  • Compact 2U form factor: Fits any standard 19-inch rack without excessive rack-unit consumption — efficient for co-location and shared server rooms.

Performance In Use

The PowerEdge 2950 was designed as an enterprise workhorse, and its construction reflects that purpose. Dual Xeon X5450 CPUs at 3GHz deliver real multi-core throughput for workloads that earlier single or dual-core platforms cannot handle comfortably — virtualisation stacks, multi-user file services, and secondary database back-ends are well within reach.

For organisations with legacy software stacks, test-and-development environments, or secondary workloads that do not justify current-generation hardware spend, the 2950 offers a proven, low-risk platform. The eight hot-swap drive bays accommodate SAS or SATA drives, so you can build a RAID array from scratch or repurpose drives from another server without compatibility concerns.

Dell iDRAC is built in for out-of-band remote management — useful for headless operation, BIOS updates, hardware monitoring, and power cycling without requiring physical access. Dual redundant PSUs protect against single-point-of-failure power events during production operation.
