About
The Dell Alienware R360 delivers enterprise-grade reliability in a compact 1U form factor. Built around a single Intel Xeon E-2400 series processor with up to eight cores, this system provides the foundation for demanding workstation and edge computing applications.
With 6 memory channels and 4 DIMM slots, the platform reaches a maximum capacity of 128 GB using DDR5 ECC UDIMM memory operating at speeds up to 4400 MT/s. The system supports both single-rank 16 GB and dual-rank 32 GB modules, giving you flexibility to scale memory based on workload requirements.
Why it matters: Proven Match™ converts Intel controller rules and system topology into deterministic kits that install cleanly, train at the correct frequency, and avoid unsupported mixes—eliminating the guesswork from memory upgrades.
Specs & Limits
| Specification | Detail |
|---|---|
| CPU Sockets | 1 × Intel Xeon E-2400 series (up to 8 cores) |
| Channels per CPU | 6 |
| DIMM Slots | 4 total (up to 2 DIMMs per channel) |
| Memory Type | DDR5 ECC UDIMM |
| Controller Speeds | 1DPC up to 4400 MT/s; 2DPC at 4000 MT/s (1R) or 3600 MT/s (2R) |
| Max Capacity | 128 GB |
| Chassis | 1U rack-mount |
Speed behavior: The Intel Xeon E-2400 memory controller determines actual bus speed based on DIMM population density. Single-rank modules at 2DPC achieve 4000 MT/s, while dual-rank modules step down to 3600 MT/s for signal integrity. Proven Match™ listings reflect configured speed—not just the DIMM label rating.
Bank Schema (Population Map)
The Alienware R360 follows Intel's recommended memory population sequence for optimal performance:
- Fastest (1DPC): Populate slots A1 and A2 first for maximum speed at 4400 MT/s
- Balanced (2DPC): Add modules to A3 and A4 for increased capacity with appropriate speed adjustment
- Maximum: Fill all four slots symmetrically for 128 GB total capacity
Proven Match™ surfaces only controller-safe, topology-compliant configurations that meet Intel's validation requirements.
Compatible Memory Types
- Curated Samsung, Micron, and Hynix modules validated for DDR5 ECC UDIMM operation
- Zero-mix policy: Identical densities required across all populated channels
- Unsupported combinations never appear in the catalog
Key requirements:
- ECC required for all server workloads
- Symmetric densities per channel for proper interleaving
- DDR5 voltage specification of 1.1V
Validation Tokens
Every configuration must satisfy three gates before it appears in our catalog:
- JEDEC DDR5 compliance — Timing and voltage specifications verified
- Intel Xeon E-2400 controller rules — 1DPC/2DPC speed tables validated
- OEM slot topology verification — Population sequence confirmed against Dell specifications
Only builds passing all three gates are surfaced—stable, balanced, and performance-true.
