Fujitsu PRIMERGY RX4770 M7
The Fujitsu PRIMERGY RX4770 M7 is a four socket, 3U rack server for in-memory databases, analytics and consolidation. It uses 4th generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors with up to 60 cores each and 64 DDR5 DIMM slots at up to 4800 MT/s. The data sheet lists up to 24 2.5 inch SAS, SATA or NVMe drives, 10 PCIe 5.0 slots and room for two double-width GPUs. Fujitsu documents give two different maximum memory figures, so check the configuration guide before sizing memory. It follows the RX4770 M6.

Works together
How the Fujitsu PRIMERGY RX4770 M7 connects to servers, storage and the network: 4 ways, with the parts and products on each path.
Fibre Channel SAN
Match the speed: 16Gb and 32Gb FC HBAs, switches and array ports work together, and each generation also runs one or two speeds below its own (a 32Gb port runs at 16Gb and 8Gb).

iSCSI and NVMe/TCP over Ethernet
Keep the speed the same at all three points: a 25GbE server, a 25GbE switch port and a 25GbE array port. Mixed speeds work but the slowest link sets the pace.

Direct-attached SAS
12Gb SAS uses Mini-SAS HD (SFF-8644) connectors; older 6Gb gear uses Mini-SAS (SFF-8088). Adapter cables exist, but the link runs at the slower speed.

File storage (NFS and SMB)
Front-end ports face the clients; back-end ports (on scale-out systems) connect the nodes to each other and need their own switch pair.

Buying a used RX4770 M7: what to check
Confirm how many processors are populated and whether the memory boards are present, since a four socket build needs the full set. Check the drive backplane type (SAS, SATA or NVMe), the number of power supplies and the iRMC licence state.
