Cisco UCS C240 M5 24 SFF Rack Server | 2 Rear Drives, Enterprise — CON-SNC-SNS3655K

Give storage-heavy workloads room to grow without moving to a larger chassis. Cisco UCS C240 M5 pairs a 2U rack design with 24 small-form-factor drive bays and 2 rear drive positions, creating a practical balance between capacity, serviceability, and rack efficiency. For teams standardizing on a common server family, that means a familiar platform that can support a wide range of enterprise roles. This configuration is supplied without CPU, memory, hard drives, PCIe cards, or power supplies, which makes it well suited for custom builds where component selection is driven by workload, budget, or lifecycle strategy. That flexibility is valuable when you need to match processor class, memory footprint, and storage layout to specific application demands instead of accepting a fixed bundle. The C240 M5 is a strong fit for virtualization clusters, storage-centric application servers, and infrastructure teams that want a chassis with room for front and rear media while keeping the deployment footprint controlled. It is the kind of platform that justifies itself in environments where expansion options and serviceability matter as much as raw compute.
