Deployment / Use Cases
The Scale Computing HE550 is ideal for small to medium-sized businesses seeking to consolidate IT infrastructure without sacrificing performance. Its hyper-converged design makes it a strong fit for virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), database hosting, and remote office/branch office (ROBO) deployments.
In environments where space is limited, the 1U rackmount form factor allows for efficient use of rack space while delivering the compute and storage resources needed for critical applications. The appliance's 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity supports high-bandwidth tasks like data backup, replication, and real-time analytics.
Virtualization Host
Run multiple virtual machines concurrently with the Hexa-core processor and ample memory, ideal for server consolidation projects.
Edge Computing Node
Deploy at remote sites for local processing and storage, leveraging the compact size and robust networking capabilities.
Physical Profile
The HE550 measures 1.70 inches in height, 17.10 inches in width, and 19.60 inches in depth, fitting standard 19-inch racks at a 1U height. Its rack-mountable design includes integrated mounting hardware for secure installation in data center environments. The compact dimensions make it easy to integrate into existing rack infrastructure while providing full hyper-converged functionality.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.70" (43.18 mm), 17.10" (434.34 mm), 19.60" (497.84 mm). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
