Energy Optimized Technology Energy Smart technologies are at the core system level on the PowerEdge T310. These energy optimized technologies are designed to increase energy efficiency within the server while continuing to deliver the performance your business requires. Built with lower wattage power supplies than its predecessor, the PowerEdge T310 offers highly efficient cabled or redundant power supply options . Also included in the T310 are low flow fans, designed to spin faster in accordance with server workload demands. This helps to reduce unnecessary noise when possible and keeps the server cooler in your office environment. The T310 also includes Energy Smart power management features including power capping, power inventory and power budgeting to best manage power in your specific environment. |
Simplified Systems Management
The Lifecycle Controller is the engine for advanced embedded management and is delivered as part of the optional iDRAC Express or iDRAC Enterprise in the PowerEdge T310. The Lifecycle Controller helps to deliver faster server deployment and update capabilities from a bare-metal pre-operating system environment.
