PowerEdge T310 Technical Guide
1 Product Comparison
The Dell™ PowerEdge™ T310 server delivers enterprise-class performance, redundancy, and
comprehensive manageability options in a 1-socket tower. The PowerEdge T310 features DDR3
memory, advanced systems management, and the availability of up to four hard drives (3.5‖ or 2.5‖)
in a compact tower chassis.
1.1 Flexible Technology
The Dell PowerEdge T310 is designed to meet the needs of growing small businesses and remote
offices of larger organizations and enterprises by offering more features and performance than a
basic, entry-level server. With its space-efficient 20.5‖ chassis, built-in redundancy features, and
comprehensive systems management, the PowerEdge T310 is the ideal robust and reliable 1-socket
tower server.
1.2 Customer-Inspired Design
Dell delivers value through tailored solutions based on industry standards as well as innovative,
customer-inspired design. As part of the 11th Generation PowerEdge server portfolio, the T310
shares system design commonality and reliability. All 11th Generation servers are designed and built
with external ports, power supplies, LEDs, and LCD screens in the same location for familiar user
experience and easy installation and deployment.
Robust, metal hard-drive carriers and organized cabling improve component access and airflow
across the server. The PowerEdge T310‘s design provides quiet acoustics and an optional interactive
LCD screen on the front bezel for ease of monitoring. With a chassis depth of 20.5‖, the PowerEdge
T310‘s chassis is ideal for use in a back office, retail, or small office settings where space and
acoustics matter.
1.3 Energy Smart
Energy Smart technologies are at the core of the PowerEdge T310 design. These energy-optimized
technologies increase energy efficiency within the server while continuing to deliver peak
performance. Built with lower wattage power supplies than its predecessor, the PowerEdge T310
offers highly efficient power supply options. The T310 also includes highly efficient fans designed to
spin faster or slower in response to server workload demands, and to help reduce unnecessary noise.
The component layout inside the T310 improves airflow, which in turn helps cool the server more
efficiently and reduces noise.
1.4 Easy to Manage
The Dell PowerEdge T310 lets you focus on running your business rather than running your servers.
Dell OpenManage™ systems management software helps to automate common management tasks,
thereby enhancing efficiency, improving productivity, and reducing the potential for error, which can
cause downtime.
The Dell OpenManage Lifecycle Controller is the engine for advanced embedded management, and is
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. With the Unified Server Configurator (USC) interface, the USC
tool provides a single interface that enables efficient operating system deployment with built-in
driver installations, firmware updates, hardware configuration, and diagnostics for the system.
Servers with hot-pluggable hard drives also benefit from an interactive LCD with remote access using
