Which two-socket PowerEdge sled can support up to eight E3.s NVMe Gen 5 SSD drives?

The correct answer is C. MX760c. MX760c is correct because it is Dell's two-socket PowerEdge sled specifically designed to support up to eight E3.s NVMe Gen 5 SSD drives, making it the highest-density NVMe storage option in the MX760c generation of the MX platform. Why the distractors are wrong: A. MX740c - An…

Explanation

MX760c is correct because it is Dell's two-socket PowerEdge sled specifically designed to support up to eight E3.s NVMe Gen 5 SSD drives, making it the highest-density NVMe storage option in the MX760c generation of the MX platform.

Why the distractors are wrong:

  • A. MX740c - An older two-socket sled that predates E3.s NVMe Gen 5 support and lacks the drive bay density of the MX760c.
  • B. MX750c - Also a two-socket sled but from an earlier generation; it does not support eight E3.s NVMe Gen 5 drives.
  • D. MX840c - This is a four-socket sled, not two-socket, so it fails the question's key constraint regardless of its storage capabilities.

Memory tip: Think of the number 760 - the "6" suggests sixth-gen (Gen 5/6 era) NVMe technology, and the "0" at the end means it's a two-socket sled (even last digits = dual-socket in the MX naming pattern, while the MX840c's "4" hints at four sockets). Eliminate the MX840c immediately whenever the question specifies "two-socket."
