The UCS C240 M5 SFF server extends the capabilities of Cisco’s Unified Computing System portfolio in a 2U form factor with the 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors, 3200 MHz DDR4 memory, and the new 512GB Intel® Optane™ Persistent Memory Modules (PMem). With this combination of features, up to 9 TB of memory is possible (using 12 x 256 GB DDR4 DIMMs and 12 x 512 GB PMem), up to 6 PCI Express (PCIe) 3.0 slots, and up to 26 internal SFF drives. The C240 M5 SFF server also includes one dedicated internal slot for a 12G SAS storage controller card.

You can mix SAS/SATA hard drives and SAS/SATA SSDs in the same server. However, you cannot configure a logical volume (virtual drive) that contains a mix of hard drives and SSDs. That is, when you create a logical volume, it must contain all SAS/SATA hard drives or all SAS/SATA SSDs.
In a 2U form factor with the addition of the 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors, 2933-MHz DDR4 memory, and the new 512GB Intel® Optane™ Persistent Memory (PMem). With this combination of features, up to 9 TB of memory is possible (using 12 x 256 GB DDR4 DIMMs and 12 x 512 GB PMem).
Memory will operate at the maximum speed of the Intel Xeon Scalable processor memory controller, rangingfrom 2133 MHz to 2933 MHz for M5 servers. Check CPU specifications for supported speeds
The C240 M5 server includes a dedicated modular LAN on motherboard (mLOM) slot for installation of a Cisco Virtual Interface Card (VIC) or third-party network interface card (NIC) without consuming a PCI slot, in addition to 2 x 10 Intel x550 10Gbase-T embedded (on the motherboard) LOM ports.

Riser 2D is shipped only in the NVMe-optimized server versionUCSC-C240-M5SN; it is not orderable separately. In the UCSC-C240-M5SNconfiguration, PCIe slot 4 is dedicated for the NVMe switch card that controls front-loading NVMe drives in front bays 1 - 8.
All GPU cards require two CPUs and a minimum of two power supplies in the server. 1600W power supplies are recommended.
NVIDIA M10 and M60 can support only less than 1TB of total memory in the server.
GPUs cannot be mixed.
Slot 5 on riser card 2 is the required slot for the first GPU
Slot 2 on riser card 1 is the secondary slot for a second GPU
