Edge server barebone for Xeon E-2100
The iStarUSA D-260HNSL-C246-1 is a 2U rackmount chassis designed for edge workloads. It accepts Intel Xeon E-2100 processors in an LGA 1151 socket with the Intel C246 chipset. Four 288-pin slots support dual-channel DDR4 up to 64 GB with ECC. Six trayless hot-swap bays and one internal 3.5-inch bay provide dense storage. A 500 W single power supply is included.
Thermal behaviour under continuous edge loads
The zinc-coated steel chassis and 2U height give a fixed airflow path for the included 500 W PSU and passive CPU cooler. Sustained compute tasks will raise internal temperatures until the system fans reach maximum speed. No liquid-cooling support or redundant PSU option exists, so thermal headroom is limited to the single supply and stock fan curve. Builders running constant 100 % CPU utilisation should monitor inlet temperatures closely.
Assembly steps and common pitfalls
Install the CPU, memory and drives before sliding the unit into a rack; the hot-swap trays accept 3.5-inch SATA drives without tools. Memory must be unregistered DDR4 ECC or non-ECC UDIMM; registered DIMMs will not post. The single PCIe 3.0 x16 slot shares bandwidth with the x8 and x4 slots, so only one full-length add-in card fits physically. Rear-panel video uses HDMI or DisplayPort from the processor graphics; a discrete GPU blocks those outputs.

Questions about this item
How loud or hot does the 500W power supply run when the server operates 24/7?
The unit ships with a 500W single power supply; acoustic and thermal output will depend on the Xeon E-2100 processor and memory configuration you install.
Which components must I supply before the barebone will boot?
You must add an LGA 1151 Xeon E-2100 CPU, DDR4 288-pin ECC or non-ECC UDIMMs up to 64GB, and storage drives for the six hot-swap 3.5-inch bays and the single internal 3.5-inch bay.
Will my existing PCIe 3.0 add-in cards fit the expansion slots?
The chassis provides one PCIe 3.0 x16, one PCIe 3.0 x8 and one PCIe 3.0 x4 slot, so any PCIe 3.0 card that matches those lane widths will install directly.
